Just wondering if anyone had an idea on how much they were going to be spending on the coming semester. I am paying my fees today. 609.70 is the total for me for just the classes. I estimate my books are going to be about 250.00-300.00. :eek:

Any college students out there?
 
When I wasin college last semester I paid $4000 for the course, $250 for parking permit, about $500 on books so I paid close to $5000 bucks, which isnt really too much. Its when you get into university courses that costs really start to add up.
 
Magic - where are you going? Those rates don't sound too bad.

I got out of graduate school $15,000 in student loan debt. I just paid that off earlier this year.
 
When I was in college, ummm... wow, eight years ago now, I paid $12,000 a year, or, $4000.00 a trimester. I can't remember how that breaks down, though.
 
What do I have to pay? Nothing. I got financial aid. :D
 
Grants. About 6-8 weeks into the semester they send me a check for whatever money they didnt use. Its usually around $900 that they send me. :D
 
I am in a small community college. :rolleyes: I know I know, I shouldn't be complaining, but hey when you have to fork that money over straight out of your pockets no help what so ever, it hurts.

I hope to do well in the small school, so I might get some help in the University I attend. :D

Speaking of which, if anyone cares, I got striaght A's this semester! (4 classes)
 
One year at college costs me 1300 euro for the classes and 500 euro for the books.
 
The charges for my classes (four of them) are about $2000, but I have grants to cover all of those. I'll probably get about $400 back. My books will be approximately $300 total.. maybe a little less. I expect that I'll have to contribute to my education once I get my bachelor degree.. I don't know how much financial aid helps with graduate school.

Congratulations! Which classes did you take? I got straight A's, too :D I had Psychology, Sociology, Business Math and Music. Next semester I'll have Child Growth and Development, Introduction to Corrections, Principles of Marketing and Intro to Software for Businesses.
 
I got a basic full ride scholarship to Pennsylvania (because they wanted a 'more diverse' student body) but I and my parents had to pay $13,700 a year or something very close for graduate school at Florida.

I didn't buy a parking pass -- I got at no fewer than 50 university-issued tickets (I'm not a sucker, though! I didn't pay any of them! And I sold the car when I graduated!). I bought all my books used, as all normal students do. :)
 
Screw regular college. I plan to go to UTI. ;)

Thanks! If you need any help with Psychology, let me know! Although, I doubt you will.
