No problem. We can guide you in certain aspects of college cost,and how to get lower costs when you happen to go to school.
That's a relief. I've been looking for reliable information for ages. Look, something i want to get help is about to know various colleges costs, Is there a way i can get a comparative view on that?
Do not worry. In fact, there is a way. Through the College Scorecard you can know for sure if a college cost is low, or medium or high. You should take note if the college has financial aid available for you, when you valuate your choices.
Oh, that's a good advice, indeed. I keep forgetting about the financial aid. About that, in which way could i obtain a tuition discount?
Well, depending on the college, conditions can be very specific, but for the most, a tuition discount could be obtained if you are, for example, child of an ex-alumni. Is that your case?
You know, in fact it is. I forgot that my father went to my school of choice, so yes, i guess it is my case.
That's excellent. Then you are most qualified to get a discount.
Yeah, right? That would be most useful, indeed. But, lets say i want to do more, could i do even more if i take a job, part-time, that is?
Of course you can do more in that way. A part-time job could help you in a great way to lower your college's costs, but you have to make sure that it doesn't get in the way of your studies and school schedules. You have to choose well.
Yeah, i know it can be troublesome if that happens. Look a last thing. What can you tell me about housing costs? Is there a practical way to low that?
