There are a lot of different ways of funding your way through college. You might be one of those students lucky enough to have a full scholarship. You may also have rich or generous parents who are willing or able to pay the bills.
However, many students are not so lucky. Most of the above funding sources will only pay part of the bill, not the total. And even if you can get all your tuition paid, you still have to come up with the money for rent, books, entertainment and other living expenses.
Employment
You may be able to get a job. This is a good idea for all students, but it is not always easy to do so. Some colleges are located far from towns with employment opportunities. Sometimes employers are reluctant to hire students as they usually cannot commit to full time work and will likely not be around during holidays. If you do manage to get a job, it will probably not be the highest paying job in the world, and you shouldnt work more than part time. Remember that your main aim during your college years is to get the best grades you can, and working 40 hours a week just to pay your tuition would be self-defeating.
