2 Sweet Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Talk to your counselors, study, and GO TO CLASS. I've slacked off for the past two years and wasted a lot of time and money. Do whatever it takes to keep yourself motivated. I've learned from my mistakes, but if I woulda been smart about it, I could have been graduating next year.

It raises the question though: Is success more likely because of the specific knowledge and accreditation OR is it because secondary education attracts people who are more motivated, self-actualized individuals? An unmotivated loaner could be forcibly enrolled in college and be just as useless with an education as he was without. The ultimate determinant of financial success is motivation.

2 Sweet Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I got the Stafford loans from Great Lakes or whatever. Make an appointment to talk to a financial person or counselor and you'll get plenty of info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
