I just did an Internet search I put in

'Getting money for living expenses while in college'

A wealth of information came up. I read each state has a Higher Education Department, it says you can contact them. It also mentioned going to the Financial Aid office at your school. You can use government school loans for living expenses. You can pay them back after you are done school and have a good job. I also know from my friend who has 5 kids, 3 are in college. She is a single mom, they all got some kind of free assistance to help with college. There is a lot of money out there to help you while you are in college, you just have to know how to find it.

I think the financial aid office would be a good start. You don't have to live that way.

Let me know how it goes
