		<description><![CDATA[Even after students get&#160;financial aid for school, they often need to make extra cash. USA Today recently reported on some creative&#160;ways to make&#160;money in college.
First, the source notes that you can do odd jobs for other students. Hang a flier up on campus offering anything from tutoring to house-painting. There is even a new app for smart phones called the Beagle app, which allows students to post jobs or errands they&#039;ll pay other people to do for them.&#160;
The source suggests lending services to students moving in to and out of campus housing at the beginning and end of the school year.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Often, gifted prospective students opt for less selective schools despite the&#160;students&#039; potentials to flourish in intense academic environments. Due to their ability to save money for college by entering certain establishments, many of these individuals end up choosing their schools based on economics rather than academics.
A Stanford study intervenes
A recent Inside Higher Ed article describes how&#160;pricier, more competitive schools feel the loss of lower-income students choosing cheaper college alternatives.&#160;
The source cites a 2012 Stanford University study that looked at this problem.&#8230;]]></description>

By finding the right job and by exercising time management, mothers who need to get additional money for college through working while going to school can better approach these difficulties.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Careful financial planning for college is&#160;a smart&#160;approach to higher education. Prospective students, with either financial aid or a scholarship for college, will want a degree that will also have financial value in the future.
Technical majors, such as engineering and computer science, have the highest success rates amongst graduates, according to a 2011 Georgetown University study. In light of this trend, career-minded students&#160;may wonder if success is still&#160;possible when studying in the humanities.&#160;
Advantages to a technical degree
Statistics show that those who major in a technical field are more likely to get a high&#160;paying job after college.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are many reasons to choose a certain degree, and one may be financial. High school students looking ahead to college may often wonder what to pursue.&#160;Parents returning to school have the same choice to face, in addition to the responsibilities of family life and the question of how to pay for classes. 
Especially for mothers with families to provide for, getting money for college is a definite benefit.&#160;Undergraduate scholarships aid in this department, and recent trends in the education world mean parents can also save.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the best&#160;tips for college is finding a school that you can see yourself attending, in terms of the university&#160;itself and its cost. Martha O&#039;Connell, executive director of Colleges That Change Lives, provided NPR with tips&#160;on choosing the right college and explained&#160;that individuals can in fact decide based on value and economy.
Schools, on the whole, have upped their cost in recent years.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A new approach to scholarships and financial aid for college is in the works. By diminishing the prevalence&#160;of merit-based scholarships, many experts believe that overall tuition costs may decrease, allowing students from a wider range of income brackets&#160;to enter school.&#160;
A pact for change
According to NPR, many&#160;schools offer large sums of money for college in order to lure the best students.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sheryl Sandberg&#039;s new book&#160;&#34;Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will To Lead&#34;&#160;encourages women to join and move up within the workforce. The&#160;Facebook COO&#039;s&#160;call is to women on the whole: whether single, married, with children, or without. Degree options for mothers, which scholarship-steered financial planning for college&#160;produces, would lead a whole new wave of women down the path of female assertiveness.
Uniting with Sandberg for change
A self-proclaimed feminist, Sandberg has created a stir with her publication.&#160;Her criticism of women hanging back in the working world has been controversial.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Students worked hard to get into college and earn a few scholarships. These grants help pay for everything from books and tuition to room and board, and in some cases, students&#160;wouldn&#039;t be able to continue attending without these kinds of financial assistance. In order to relieve the stress of scholarship maintenance and help pupils focus on doing well in school, learning the ways to keep these funds rolling in can be a huge weight off students&#039;&#160;shoulders.&#8230;]]></description>
