Financial Assistance
Employment
Students who are employed owe $1,406, while those who are not owe
$1,281. Students who do not receive parental support owe $1,478,
whereas individuals who do receive parental support are in debt
of $1,256. Students who do not receive parental support owe less
because their necessities are taken care of by their parents. Instead
of owning a credit card, they probably carry around cash.
Grants
When it comes to grants, students receiving grants owe $1,539 and
students who do not receive grants owe $1,268. A major reason why
students who receive grants owe more than those who do not is that
after a large portion of their grant goes towards their tuition
the rest of the grant is basically free money. The remaining grant
should be used towards books and such, but students charge purchases
to their credit cards freely, knowing that they can use their grant
to pay off the balance. Students should not spend their grant money
so profusely on non-related school items as they will dig themselves
deeper into debt.
Scholarships
Lastly, students who are awarded a scholarship owe $2,000 whereas
$1,298 is owed by those who do not have a scholarship.
