yeah, seriously.. I know my situation isn't that bad compared to people like Kenn that goes to UC's and Cal States, but it still hurts the pocket.

I believe it was because of Arnold's school cuts and shiet. Boo... He blows big whale *****.
Damn man. Yeah, I overheard you talking about this at the last meet.. after all, I was right next to you. haha.

 
Rep Power: 268

haha yeah..hurts like shiet -__- its like i almost lost 3/4 the money for a full kswap >.<

yeah.. damn. School is ridiculous man. It's not even funny. You buy the whole damn book and then by the time you need to sell it, you get less than 50% of the original value and the worst part is when a new edition comes out and you're out of luck and can't sell it back. And when you do get like $40 for selling a $100+ book, they resell it for like $80-90 used.. so wrong.

dang that sucks. Yeah, i remember arnold raised tutition to double the price the last two yrs i was in school. I can't imagine how high it is now. once you max your cal grant and other grants, i would try to get some subsidized loans.

Don't worry about the loans, the interest is tax deductible. Once you consolidate the loans when you graduate you get 15-30yrs to pay it off depending on the amount.

Rep Power: 303

Thanks for the info, Mike!

As for financial aid and tax purposes, you should, but some don't. I didn't a few times. lol

well i doubt most people get enough grant money to really pay income tax anyways. As a student you get some deductions and tax credits, so usually you pay nothing. Unless you want to pay into the government ponzi scheme called social security.

To be honest with you, I'm not too sure, but financial aid will ask you how you were able to go by financially, IF you didn't work. I would state that my parents were helping me go to college. If I were you, since you're not getting checks (under the table), don't file, unless you are the man of the house.

So, Ricer.. were you able to install the blue LEDs? lol j/k

you can go on turbotax online and fill out there online tax program, it'll tell you if you owe or will receive money. It free unless you want to submit the return to the irs then they charge you.

To be honest, the IRS usually doesn't audit people who make less than $100k a yr. Unless there's something weird in your balance sheet like you claming to make $25k a yr and own a $500k house.

I would take a intro to tax accounting class. Its boring as crap, but you learn a lot of interesting info.
