Paying for College

As an international student who's parents can only provide so much funds for my university life. What do i do
Answered

My grades are pretty decent, not amazing but I can possibly get scholarships or funding from schools but I want to ensure that I've done everything I can in terms of grades, essays, charity work and anything else that will better my chances of receiving financial aid.

My Question is for any student or person that was in a similar situation as me and was able to get into their university please give me some advice and tell me your story.

What should my main short term and long term goals be.

Additionally I wanted to know if I got a internship or job while doing university will I be able to make a reasonable contribution to the amount of funding needed to live while still having time to complete my studies

The best way to get financial aid in your case is to apply to . Some of the schools on this list will meet 100% of your financial need based on your family's income, meaning that you will pay an amount that you really can afford.

You will have enough time to work enough to pay for daily living costs, but not much of your income will be left over. If your parents have the ability to pay for part or all of your daily expenses, that would enhance your college experience. Hope this helps!
