How to go to college with no money

Question

I really want to finish college (I went for two years and quit when I had my daughter, who is now almost 21). I have outstanding student loans that I am slowly paying off, but I really want to get a degree. How do I do that without having to pay more loans?

This sounds all too familiar. I developed a strategy in college that lead me to start saving wherever I could. Ex: I stopped buying my own coffee and made my own... That saved me over $3/day which sounds small... but that alone saved me over $1,000/year.

hi anon, i think some colleges let you go for free if u work there! also there are some companies that will support you to go to school. maybe doing school full-time will be difficult with working but if you are not in a rush, you could go to school part time. hope this helps!

Schools often allow payment plans to pay out of pocket. Also, ask about resources for 'non-traditional students.'
