Two things...
One...don't use any extra...B.C.<br /><br />Two things...<br /><br />One...don't use any extra financial aid money unless you have to. You still have to pay it back. I did the same thing and ran the debt right back up and now I have to pay the student loans and credit card debt. <br /><br />Two...Since you will be going part-time and working full-time, don't take out any extra loans that you don't need and if you do...don't spend it!!! Please!!! It adds up quickly and the interest continues to accrue. <br /><br />Take it from me...$200k+ in the hole. <br /><br />Okay...three things...less loans and debt gives you more options in terms of the law you practice. It is hard to find a job at a mid to large size firm so you want to keep your debt levels low so you have flexibility in your post grad legal work. <br /><br />Good luck!!!Chitownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03524244500611541609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988314300496275257.post-24853481738004317492010-06-27T11:02:04.422-04:002010-06-27T11:02:04.422-04:00B.C.: I see you completing major financial goals w...B.C.: I see you completing major financial goals with your student loan money.

The CC is closed and they will not open it once I pay the balance off. I will use 10% of the check to start a emergency savings (ultimate goal is to save $5000) and car emergency savings ($500). Pay my half of the rent up for the semester. The remainder of the money will help me take care of misc debt and establish a monthly allowance.B.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12510496592188756819noreply@blogger.com
