Q1: Is living off campus cheaper than living in a dorm.
A1: This can vary. Living on campus can be quite expensive, but Living off campus can be as well. You'd have to take into consideration how far you live. If you live quite a distance away you have to realize the amount of money you're paying for gas builds up from going back and forth each day. Not only that but as well as paying for the rent, food and anything else you'd want to do. At the same time it's all dependent on you and what you prefer. Many students tend to stay in a dorm to try to save all that extra money.
Q2: How do I find Scholarships for college?

There are thousands of scholarships that people or businesses and even schools want to give to students in need. If you have already decided which school you will be attending you should come in contact with the financial aid offices.

Getting a scholarship for college can come in many different ways, from sports to academic things. Finding a scholarship can be very easy if you go online and look it up or even go to the college for information.
