The Craziest Ways To Pay Your Tuition?

Found this article online called "The Craziest Ways To Pay Your Tuition?" that talks about the crazy ways that some students have paid for their college tuition.

It seems when scholarships and free money and government grants are not enough to help defray the cost of college, students (and their parents) have thought up different crazy ways to be able to pay for college costs.

Some of the ways that students have used to pay for their student loans have included begging on the streets, playing music for tips and there was even a special program where students could get part of their tuition paid by trading livestock?????

Some other students started their own business by offering cleaning services.

Other students have even done dumpster diving for food!

Ever Wonder What Happens If You Don't Pay Your Student Loan(s)?



Have you ever wondered what happens if you don't pay off your student loans? Well there is an article online about a doctor who has been arrested for operating without a license. Their license was suspended because the doctor didn't pay off her student loans!

According to the online article the doctor defaulted on four federal loans she used to pay for her tuition at college and medical school. The doctor owes over $200,000 in student loans!

Even though she was under court order to pay off a portion of her student loans she didn't do so. So now she has been arrested and being held on bail.
