Hello all! I thought this might be a interesting topic to bring up:
How do you finance your education? Do you have scholarships, loans, grants, etc? Do your parents pay for you? Or do you pay for it on your own?
Personally, I had a scholarship given to me, my senior year in high school from the Long Beach Sororoptimists. It was a help for my books and supplies, but for tuition, my parent's fit the bill. My second year of college until now, I haven't been so lucky. I've paid my own way... Which is one of the many reasons why I have taken some time off of school, and went Alum with the sorority.
Well, today MSN had a lovely article on scholarships/loans/grants/etc, (here's the
link) and I found there's a scholarship for tall people!!! Yeah, sure did have to look that one up. But unfortunately you have to be in high school to receive it! Man, I thought, "Finally, being tall will pay off! oh wait, nope, I was wrong..."
Anyways, this MSN article had some interesting information, you might wanna take a look at it and pass it on to some high schooler you know.
