The College of St. Benedict

College costs a lot of money
Hello, my name is Sarah, and I am a junior at The College of St. Benedict in St. Joseph, Minnesota. Preparing for the future, by attending college, makes for limited spending power. So, in regards to budgeting the few dollars that college students have, one should use some common sense.

Buying textbooks
Shop around when buying textbooks. I realize that it is easy to go down to the campus bookstore, but you can use your computer to check the internet. Your first trip to the campus bookstore will be an overwhelming experience. You'll be hoping the cash register malfunctions, and charges you 50 for your new $99 economics book.

The smart choice is to look elsewhere for books. By going to internet bookstores, you can save, on average, 50%. When you go to sell your books, campus bookstores tend to give you next to nothing. So, it makes economic sense to sell your copy of Business in Action, for example, to another student for $50, instead of getting just $20 from the bookstore. Both of you come out ahead.

Scholarships
Apply for every scholarship you can find. The majority of scholarships are easy to apply for. You may be thinking that your GPA isn't good enough, but some scholarships are purely need-based, and others are given to children of military veterans or employers, without other qualifications.

Enjoy your time at college
Take part in all of the little perks that make you a "college kid". My first week on campus, I bought posters for my room, and music from iTunes for my iPod. You need to spend some money on creature comforts, and don't forget that college sweatshirt.

Try to get good professors
Check www.ratemyprofessor.com.and see how your instructors are rated. Getting a good one, can make all the difference.
