1 or 2 jobs? Three diff ways to pay for school? If you're going to lie, stick to one story.
That is exactly what I did.
Are you serious? I knew a bunch of people doing the same. Partial scholarship. Loans. Pell Grant. My parents had nothing much to give me. My mom bought me meal plan my freshman year and sent me $100 a month to help with rent the next 2 years. That was it. I was on my own. I did a appreciate their insurance my first 3 years (health and car).
Then, I worked as well. One part time job then I picked up another on weekends. Between the two jobs, it was around 30 hrs a week at pretty low pay. That was my last two years of school. My first year was just the loans, partial scholarship, and Pell Grant.
Put all that together and I paid for school and supported myself with a little help from my folks.
The fact that you don't even know that that is possible or you think someone would make that up is pretty amazing. LOTS of people do that. It is not that special.
