    Cool Oh thankyouthankyouthankyou!

    I just got my tuition bill from the college. I was actually too nervous to open it at first. But it's okay!! I got $1400 in grants, which pays for almost all of my tuition. Then I got a Federal Stafford loan to pay the difference and for my books.

    That's great Heather! I was worried about mine too. I ended up taking out a Stattford Loan to pay for most of it and I will shell out the money for the books. I didn't qualify for any grants like last semester. I guess that is due to DH's pay raise.

    Oh how wonderful!

    I am so glad you are getting a break! I know how expensive it can be.

    I have one in college now and she is moving to a new expensive dorm.

    I keep waiting to hear what tuition--well the state pays tuition and books--we pay room and board and her Dad (my ex) pays half of that.

    I think college this 2007-2008 year will cost me about $4200.

    Pretty sweet deal considering it could be $20,000 a year!

    I have another going into college 2008-2009--egads!
    The math never lies, budget in INK!

    Amount of Free items 2012 $391.33


    Debt #2 12/31/12 CC $901.88
    Debt #3 12/31/12 $3648.83

    Madness, mayhem chaos...my work here is done!
