Is it possible to go back to school while........

How can I go back to school while in massive debt and broke? Serious inquiry

 

[Clocian]

How much is "massive"? Still though, the only way I would say go back to school while in debt is if you have a job that pays for most of it. For example, I work for Amazon, and they pay 95% of my tuition. Leaving me only having to pay $100 per semester. Check some of these:

Scholarships. Apply for as many as you can, they add up. In high school the AVID kids were racking up the money, most with 30-40k+ in scholarships, a couple with enough to cover it all. I made the classic mistake of not wanting to put the work in and write some essays so I had to pay out of pocket.

Also don't be foolish and go to an out of state school because you'll get reamed on tuition. Most curriculums don't differ that much so just get the piece of paper and move on.

Unless you want to be in science or medicine why not just learn the trade skills through self study and certifications then apply for jobs that way? No school, no debt, and best of all you'll be back in work in less than 6-7 months with the correct drive.

Apply for apprenticeships and internships locally and overseas. You don't just have to work in your local city you know.
