I pretty much ended up in the same boat as Quirky Jessi. I was lucky enough to get grants, scholarships and financial aid. These things helped enormously! I wouldn't have been able to graduate from my first degree debt free without all this support. I guess I was also lucky to have parents who could financially help me out too.

 

But when I went back to school for my MA, even with tons of scholarships, stipends and grants I ended up in the hole.

 

I've worked since I was 16. There was something really important about learning how to hold down a job and manage to get school work done. I needed the money, but I also needed the training. Thanks to working through school, I have an awesome work ethic and I'm a multi-tasking superhero.
