Fwd: Twent-one (21) Ways You Can Learn How To Save Money In College

Hello!

Looking to learn how to save money in college? With ever rising college costs, it can really help your current and future finances if you learn how to save money.

Tuition for an in-state public college averages around $25,290. Private college tuition costs twice as much, at an average of $50,900, according to Value Penguin. If you want to go to an elite, four-year university, the cost jumps to $68,000 per year.

And, if you're going to college for something like medicine or law, you may end up paying hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years that you are in school.

As you can see, college can be very expensive.

However, I want you to know that you can learn how to save money in college so you can get a valuable college degree on a realistic budget.

Many students take out student loans to pay for college, and it can be very easy to borrow more than you actually need. While student loans do help you pay for college, having those loans hanging over your head can set your finances back by years and even decades. I borrowed and paid off $50K, was qualified for $250K.

And if you're a parent trying to help your child, I've heard far too many stories of parents who go to great lengths to pay for school. Some take out a second mortgage, personal loans, or borrow from their retirement to send their children to college. The problem with this is that these parents are making it even more difficult to retire at their planned age. Remember, you can't take out a loan for retirement! I declared my self independent from my immagrant parents.

College is just very expensive, but for many students it's an important part of how they work towards a job or career they've always wanted. But, I want you to know that you can learn how to save money in college.

By cutting college costs, you can lower your student loan debt, or it can help parents reduce the amount they are borrowing or taking out of savings to pay for their children's education.

Look into scholarships, I went to school in NYC on a Liberty/ SEEK scholarship which took care of tuition and fees for me, got Pell & Foundation Grants, a CWS College Work Study program where share a job etc. up to Masters degree and a Fellowship/ Assistantship for a PhD (Computer Sci. in my case).

Or, with these tips on how to save money in college, you may be able to attend college without racking up any student loan debt. Remember, that is also possible!
