Get a job, save, save, save, make use of scholarships and grants?? Don't get shitfaced and waste all your money on alcohol idk

Tbh though, if your English, student loans will cover it all so don't worry, they're really not as scary as everyone makes out

Do community college first for basics.

Also experiment some and figure out what you want to do first, so you don't change your major a bunch of times when you're in college.

A gap year between graduation and starting college can help, but be sure you'll be willing to do after it's done before you commit. Try saving money during it.

That's not an option in the UK (assuming that's where OP is from), from what my friends have said if you want to change courses after your first year you won't get more student finance to cover that.

£12k is more than enough depending how much SF you get, depending on your household income. £7.5k is more than enough, that's including pretty good accommodation and you can spend £50-60 on stuff, you should have enough. I think Universities give out grants too.

I can't keep a regular job during school because my school hours are retarded. I stream video games to make side money while living on campus and its a great 'part time'

make a min of 500 a month, with freebies of stuff people send to you. I suggest you do it if you like games

you dont have to be attractive or show boobs just be fun/nice/friendly and have fun gameplay

its a great 'job' for students.

I'm doing exactly that, changing uni after the first year, and not a lot of people know this because they try to keep it hush-hush but with SF you do actually get one fuck-up year where they can write off the debt providing you have valid cause like you were sick or some shit, which is what happened to me.

Don't know how off topic this is, but anyone got any opinions on marketing or business degrees?? I want to take one but I'm not sure of the credentials and how over subscribed the Advertising industry is? If this is too OT just disregard this I suck cocks
