I got a bunch of scholarships at different private schools, all ranging from 13k to 20k.
I'm now going to a public school that offered me no scholarship. Tuition was so expensive at the private schools that it ends up costing about the same at my current school anyways.

Yeah, everyone got 2k but because of my score on this one test it was doubled. ![Approve Approve](smileys/smiley14.gif) It doesn't matter anymore though.

Or... study in Quebec where school is cheap.
But you'll need the job anyway for party money.

I will owe the govt. around $9,000 after this year. Which isn't all that bad.

Oh, I just noticed a scholarship is supposed to be based on an achievement, isn't it? The thing I'm talking about is not though, it's just money from the government to support those who attend at college the first four years of that time. I don't think we have scholarships based on achievements here at all.

I think my govt loan is about $9k NZ, which is pretty good after 3 years of Uni fees.

Yeah, I did remember my dream again last night. So the whole saying "I will remember my dream" thing does seem to work. Thankfully it was not as bizarre as last time. I've jotted them both down. After a few times I'll try the lucid dreaming. And yeah, if a good sleep cycle is part of it then I am f**ked at the moment

I have trouble remembering dreams on less than six or seven hours of sleep.
My government loan is 5.5k US a year. It helps pay for a little more than a quarter of tuition + total cost of living.
It's actually less expensive going here than it would have been to go to the university I got a $20k a year scholarship from.

I somehow made it through my four, and a half, years of school with one loan. FTW!
