How do you get into college when you have no money and your not that smart to get a scholorship?

Question

and you want to finish college fast and get on with your life?

Answer 1

You go two years to a community college, then transfer to an in-state public university. You work at least part time during the school year, full time in the summers, and take out student loans to cover the rest.

Answer 2

Most colleges offer need based scholarships that are only based on a passing GPA (Anything above a 2.0). I was in a similar boat when I started college. I only had a 3.0 and that wasn't good enough for most of the colleges that I wanted to go to, so I chose a different route. I went to community college first. Typically the cost for a community college with books, fees, etc. per year runs around $1,300. (Which is pretty cheap when it comes to college.) So roughly you are looking at about $650 a semester for 15 hours.

The advantages of going to a community college first?
-Cheaper than a major university
-90% of the classes offered will transfer to a major university
-Easier coursework
-Small classes (My English class only had about 15 people in it whereas at a major university there might be up to 500 students in the English class.)
-Helpful instructors
-Convenient class meeting times (I am able to work full time and go to school full time at night and online.)
-If you can apply yourself and do well there are more opportunities for transfer scholarships than first-year scholarships.

Other than that, if you don't go to a community college, you pretty much have the Military as your only other option. I would suggest trying to work at least part-time and start saving your money now for later on- you'll need it!

Good Luck!

Answer 3

You don't. (Awfully demanding, aren't you?) You want it cheap, you're not smart AND you want it fast?

Some companies offer tuition reimbursement, but I don't know how prevalent that is, any more. I'd suggest joining the National Guard. Most states pay 100% tuition to a State college if you are a member. Of course, there's the whole military experience you have to deal with, too. But hey, no one said it was easy.

Answer 4
