Dear Mamnu Souffle,

I'm a full time student at Wright State, and I have to work two jobs in order to pay rent and to buy my books and stuff. I'm hav- ing a really hard time balancing school and work. My work is really demanding, and I'm tired all the time. I have a hard time keeping my grades up. I really like school and I want to have a nice career job when I graduate, but I don't know how I'm going to make it. Do you have any advice on how I can balance between BATHtoo* FREE the demands of work and school0 Please help.

Sincerely, Tired All the Time.

Dear Tired All the Time.

1 completely understand the difficulty between balancing school work and a full time job. Unfortunately it's something that most students have to deal with. You're definitely doing the right thing by staying in school. It's the only way to get ahead in life'. One of the ways that a lot of students manage to get through collegc is by taking out student loans to cover expenses. General- ly, you can take out more money through student loans then what you actually need to pay for college. liven if you're on a scholar- ship of some kind, you can still take out money in student loan... If this is the case, then you could have a few extra thousand dol- lars a month to cover expenses. Depending on how much money you can get in student loans, which depends a lot on how much money your parents make, you can live the good life and not have to work. So if you're a rich kid, you're out o'" luck. If you're* not a rich kid, however, then you'll probably qualify for a lot of money. The time to fill out your FAFSA is right now. so consider applying for student aid 2 right away. I have known many people through my extended lifetime who have survived college on student loans alone. This will enable you to not have to work so hard and to enjoy your college years more fully. Now bear in mind, of course, that this is not free money. All students' loans have to be paid back eventually. But don't worry about this too much. You won't receive your first student loan bill until six months after graduation. By that time you should have a nice, comfortable job where you'll make plenty of money to han- dle the loan repayment. And even if you don't have a nice job by that time, you can always defer the loans. Remember that if you borrow money in student loans you should definitely consolidate those loans. Loan consolidation will extend your payments, making the monthly total easier to bear. Of course, depending on the size of your loan, you might be making these payment for the next 20-30 years, but what does that really matter right now? Surely, not having to work right now will be worth the 2-3 hundred dollars that you'll have to pay until you're almost fifty years old. And remember as my oie' Grand Pappy Souffle used to sav. "Don't worry about counting your chickens before they hatch. They'll pop up sooner or later."
