These last few modules have been very enlightening for me. I learned quite a bit about budgeting my money and how much things will cost when I start living on my own. The costs were higher than I expected so it was good to get a real taste of reality. I also learned a lot about the application process for college and the different ways to receive financial aid. This will be extremely helpful for me because that part of my life is quickly approaching and I have to start making major decisions about colleges and the financial aid process.
I have known what college might be best for me and have been thinking about what I would like to study for years now. I am finally starting the process where I can solidify these decisions and everything I learned in these modules will help me make educated decisions that will benefit me in the future.
