Answer 1

here is a link that will definently give you some of an insight. they manage your tuition, books, summer activitys (school related, certain extracericular), they also help with paying for your dorm. the best part is, there rates are really good

(the following rates are just for graduetes and profesional students. there are many more diffrent types of student loans to!!!)
Attractive, fixed interest rate—plus interest rate reduction2 of 0.75%.

Rate reduction

(graduates and profecional students loan rates, continued)

All Graduate PLUS Loans begin with a fixed federal interest rate of 8.50%. When you choose a Citibank PLUS Loan you can get a rate as low as 7.25%.Here's the Citibank difference:

You get an automatic 0.75% interest rate reduction when your loan enters repayment.
You get a 0.50% interest rate reduction when you enroll in Citibank's E-Z Pay auto-debit payment program and you agree to only receive electronic statements.

Save up to 6.00% on your principal loan balance with Citibank's ZERO payments your last 6 months.

Answer 2

Student loans. Your plight is very common. You take out student loans, and depending on whether you can/want to, you get a job as well. Especially after your first year, you can find paying intern jobs as a law student. I had one with the DA's office, other friends were TAs for the undergrad classes.

Answer 3

The majority of law school students don't have the money to pay for the school them selves. Stafford loans are the most commonly used means to pay for law school. Lower interest rates than private loans.

Answer 4

strippers make a lot of money...you could also get a job as a test subject in a gov't. lab...really you are just going to have to suck it up, get loans and a bunch of shitty part time jobs just like 1000s before you...
