Lesson 6: Spending, Saving & Financial Aid

Assignment

- Look at your financial future; how much do you know you have for sure?

- Calculate how much money you still need to get together, research all financial aid options available

- If you are at a point where you can start applying for financial aid; don’t just go for the obvious but also try non conventional options, like private institutions and scholarships you think you might not qualify for.

- Calculate if whatever you still lack can go into “living expenses” or “tuition expenses”. If it is the latter try and get it together before starting school. In the first case calculate how much you would have to work to get by.
