How to go to college:
Get a job, two if necessary.
Live minimally, barely get by and put as much money into savings as you can.
Sponge off your parents as long as possible to avoid rent.
Invest your free time studying subject matter for future studies either online or at libraries.
After a few years you will have enough money to attend college, and will be debt free.
You will be debt free upon graduating college.
And your parents will be very proud of you.
Loans are for suckers.
I was able to tick off 2 years of vo-tech while in high school and the school system picked up the tab (thank you tax payers).
Worked my ass off the next to years to pay for the rest.
I would *never* go to a “college” that makes you take advanced basket weaving and other such crap as part of your major.
