If college expenses seem too costly, even with loans, remember there are always alternatives:

• Attending a community college for the first one or two years. Then transferring to a more expensive college that offers the advanced programs you want.
• Working for several years enables you to save money for college.
• Joining a branch of the armed forces or working for an employer who offers educational benefits can make your educational goals more achievable.

There are many ways to achieve your educational goals. Don't give up!
