Paying for GA-PCOM

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Live frugally. Apply for every scholarship available. Borrow as little as you can get by with but don't cut corners to the point that your studies are effected.
 
You should be able to take out federal loans (Stafford unsubsidized + Grad PLUS, assuming you meet the requirements) to cover the estimated cost of school (tuition + books + living expenses). If you're not familiar with aid packages, I strongly suggest you talk with a financial aid counselor at PCOM-GA (assuming that's where you've been accepted).
