Paying for school can be overwhelming, but there are many ways to earn money or reduce costs. Start by looking for free money like scholarships, grants, and financial aid. Fill out your financial aid application each year and apply for smaller scholarships too, not just the big ones. Schools, local businesses, community groups, and online platforms offer scholarships that many students overlook. Your school's financial aid office is a great resource because they know about opportunities that students often miss.
Next, consider working while studying. On-campus part-time jobs are usually flexible with class schedules, and work-study programs are designed for students. Off-campus jobs like tutoring, retail, cafes, reception work, or online freelance work can also help with expenses. Some students also do paid internships related to their major, which helps both financially and for future careers.
You can also lower costs by choosing cheaper housing, buying used textbooks, taking some classes at a community college first, or setting up a payment plan with your school so you don't have to pay everything at once.
