Obligatory: “You won’t always have a calculator on you.”
If you can’t afford to pay cash for college, you can’t afford to go. This was in the early 90’s and no one in my family had ever been to college, so I didn’t have anyone outside of that environment to talk to. I had a 2 year full ride scholarship, but I didn’t think I could afford the rest. They never once mentioned financial aid or student loans. I was poor military kid going to a wealthy high school, so I didn’t know any better.
10 years in the military later, I found out about pell grants, student loans, and other ways to pay for school. My life would have been much different if I went straight to college.
