I am getting ready to enter college and I have a state-funded scholarship that pays for my tuition at a state college (Louisiana’s TOPS Program). However, I have many other things to pay such as books, housing (off-campus), and electricity bills, meals, gas, clothes, entertainment, etc. My question is this: If I get additional scholarships, will I be able to use that money to pay for what I chose? Does my college regulate that money, or can I use it to pay rent or bills? Do I receive the money or does my college receive it? What happens to scholarship money once college tuition is paid?

I’m an incoming freshman this year, and I just got an administrative assistant position at a hospital on Saturdays. I’ll be going to school full-time, but I plan on working through the week during the summer. How much money can I legally make without it affecting my financial aid package? Is there a certain amount of money you can make and not have to file taxes?

I was just wondering how much money does the average college student have in the bank. I have one friend who has $20.00 in the bank and another friend with close to $6,000.00 in the bank and i have like $150.00 in the bank, so I was just wondering what is the normal average amount of money college students usually have?

Ok so I know I can easily tutor someone, cut hair and get a campus job. Are there any other things I can do to make some easy money besides having ***.

I have student loans through Sallie Mae. I am trying to not only make a larger monthly payment but also weekly payments and I can not find these options on their website. Can anyone help me with this problem?
I have called Sallie Mae several times about this issue. However, no one has truly been clear or even been able to tell me how to do this.
