So, I am going to grad school in the fall and my big realization is that there is not money for grad school like there is for undergrad.  

I need $...and am kinda struggling with where to get it from.


any suggestions?

loans will probably be your best bet

What about taking out a loan? I know many don't like the whole idea of a loan because of the interest rates and all, but if you don't have anything else, then it's your best bet. That or you could maybe take on a second job and use that money alone for school, it might be tough but it will pay off in the end.

I am already resigned to student loans...but..I would like to find it from somewhere else as well.

I enlisted in the military to help fund all of my college before and after joining.  But I highly doubt that you'd consider that a helpful reply.

I'd suggest a Line of Credit over a loan.

dont really think that their is much I could or would do for the military, and vice versa.

Glad it worked for you though!

Granted, I went through enough blood, sweat and tears in order to accomplish all that I've had prior to being discharged.  Therefore, I highly doubt that I would have done it again if given the chance.
