Today in the mail, I received my financial award letter from my university. I’ve been awarded a UMUC President’s Grant (yay!), which was totally unexpected! Though, the grant won’t even pay for half of one course, but it will still make a nice dent in the tuition fees. Also, I’m eligible for a federal subsidized OR unsubsidized loan, both in amounts way higher than I will need. So I accepted the subsidized loan to save on interest and accepted an amount that is only what I need.
I am one step closer to paying for college–sensibly!–and getting that darn degree once and for all! The sooner that happens, the sooner (cross your fingers) I can get a better job and quit working two of them. Hopefully. That’s the plan, anyway!


Woohoo on the grant!
Congrats girl!
Congrats, and good luck!
Hope your degree helps you better than mine is helping me
