Dreamer at USC needs your help

Hi All,

Please take the time to read through a fellow dreamer's story, and perhaps contribute if you feel inclined to help. Let's help a fellow dreamer reach her goals.

You have to ask yourself:

Are you in the right field if you can't get your school to waive your tuition (for grad school)?

yes we all need to be engineers or computer scientists. society doesn't need anything else. /s

That would actually solve a lot of problems.

Aren't there enough social workers already? :/ I hope she can get her money tho.

There are plenty of people who opt for more cost effective solutions based on your finances, it's called compromises.

What a lazy ass way to ask for help. "Send me money so I can go to grad school"

Sorry that just rubs me the wrong way.

I hope she doesnt get any loans because she will be in debt for decades on a Social Worker salary.

Ha fuck em. Study something productive instead.

I hate people like that. People who think they can make quick buck by asking cutely.

I wouldn't say it's a bad thing to study, I mean she does seem genuinely interested.

That being said, if you are paying for tuition then its usually:

1. Not competitive enough for funding (you don't need to be a citizen for this)
1.b. You're reaching - go to a lower ranked school and excel there instead for a fraction of the cost
2. Your field doesn't offer funding (which doesn't make sense, because one would not expect people to pay $100k in tuition to become a social worker, a job title that is supposed to benefit the society).

Something is fishy here...
