Thanks!

I have a graduate assistantship. That's how alot of grad students I know pay for school. You get your tuition paid (or sometimes partial tuition and a stipend) in exchange for having certain responsibilities. I work in the department office helping the program coordinator with whatever she needs. Some of the other GAs I know work in the Campus Counseling Center (I'm in a counseling program).
Check and see if the department/program offers assistantships and apply for them (if you get into the program, of course). There are typically only a few of these positions per department.
