I am a second term DPT student. I thought I would share my little advice for how to make a little bit back on your tuition payments if your school allows it.
To start off, my credit score is pretty good. Because of this and that I work part time while in school, I am able to get approved for most credit cards. I get alot of email offers or notice them for huge introductory offers. These offers usually are along the lines of "if you spend $2000 with this card in the first x number of months, we will give you $500-750 cash back"
My school does not charge us a fee to use credit cards to pay tuition. So, every term, I apply for 3 or 4 of these cards and then pay my tuition with them right before my loans are disbursed. I then get my loans in the form of a refund to my bank and pay off my cards within 30 days of making the payment.
This term I will be receiving over $1500 cash back from my tuition payments. I know money is tight for us while we are in school, but this is an easy way to make a little extra back for personal use or to pay back some loans while in school.
Thanks for reading!
