anyone get a scholarship?
#24
I've been thinking that this is one of the downfalls of attending Universities like TESU. Depending on your income level and GPA you could qualify for grants and scholarships at your local colleges.
In my case the GI BIll has been paying for college but I also qualified for a Grant. Also I was checking prices of attending different schools and came to the conclusion that Cal State Fullerton, the school that I've been eyeing is actually pretty cheap for me.
If I didn't have the GI Bill, Community college would still have been free in my case. I think TESU is still great for working adults like me.
However for younger people a Community College education with a transfer to local university might be a better option depending on income levels and grades. I actually think that community colleges are a bargain in California due to the grants that one could qualify for.
Ideally one could learn a trade or some skills like IT in a community college while also getting a transferable Associate's. Then one could transfer out and have something to fall back on if things fail at the university level.
Another thing, once you have a bachelor's degree, then you no longer qualify for many of these grants and financial aid instruments. One needs to make that bachelor count and rethink that History or Liberal Arts degree.
