How did you pay for your college?

I went to community college first and got the GE classes out of the way. It was 20 bucks a credit hour 5 years ago in California.

Then I took a couple years off to join the Army and went into the National Guard soon after which I am still currently a part of. I had to sign a 6 year contract, but I get to use State and Federal tuition assistance, along with the GI Bill and Pell Grant (which just about anyone can get). Although there are new rules coming out to start clamping down on those funds.

Regardless, I'm double majoring in engineering and have zero debt.

Don't rule out going to a community college first to knock out the "fluff". And if you want to go the military route, consider the National Guard over the Reserves since you can tap into state funds as well. And you can serve your commitment as you go to school instead of commissioning and having to serve afterwards.

one plus is I've already passed my AP English III test last year so I won't have to take that in college and also I'm currently taking ap english iv and AP calculus so hopefully I pass those as well.

out-of-state is almost always a horrible decision unless you get an offer you can't pass up, either through scholarship or because you got into a prestigious academy and have the goals to match up with an ivy league diploma. you can do just as well with a nursing program at UNCG and you'll pay literally a 10th of the price.

 

i have never taken out loans… i've gone to inexpensive public universities (the community college system, transferred to UNCG, and now i'm at UNCC) and i've worked constantly during it. i worked as a line cook during most of my first degree for about 30 hours a week, and for the three years in school i've pulled between 40-80 a week bartending. i have zero debt.

 

i really recommend you rethink your plans unless finances are simply not a concern… and that doesn't appear to be the case.

***** yourself. If you meet the right ASU chick pimp her too

When in doubt, sell coke

My sister paid for mine. I never paid a dime for books or tuition. Oh yeah, she also gave me $150 a week for lunches.

That said, I worked full time and spent all my money on bitches.

Bitches are everywhere if u got $$$.  You take em to a nice restaurant, order a nice glass of wine and then take them home at night, panties will be flying. 

 

 

Enjoy college life as much as you can.

meh

 

Be prepared to take those classes again. AP is overrated, IMO.

 

I had a couple of those classes and scored towards the top on my mathematics placement exams and still had to take bumfuq algebra and geometry in college because they conveniently didn't transfer over.

 

You might as well start bending over and spreadin' those cheeks because college is gonna rape you for all your worth. Especially if you go out of state....ESPECIALLY!
