Kidding. Kinda. GL with being an RA. the proper insult is "university of spoiled children" my family makes < $30K a year for 4 people, so i'm definitely not spoiled.
actually, my dad is going to be changing jobs and starting a new church in atlanta, which means that our income will effectively be close to zero.
part of the reason why i'm doing this is because my family really needs me relieve the financial burden of higher education. but hey, with this on top of university and federal grants and stuff totaling quite a bit over 40K it isn't too bad.

free food !! what more could you want

hey this is kind of private but how does your financial aid work? do they just go like $30k total, and give you like $15k grant and then take off additional $5k or so off since you get free housing? or do they go $30k - $5k for free housing and then -$10 for financial aid so that your family pays the same amount? i guess my question is, is your financial aid affected by your reduced total? i'm asking this because i thought the way financial aid was calculated was by determining the maximum amount your family should pay.
and congrats on being an RA. my freshman RA was super tight and i hung out with him a lot.

You shoulda just called me dumb and left it at that (I feel really dumb for messing up the acronym.)
But it's surprising how much federal grants give you. And from an earning potential point of view, it's worth every penny.

I did an RA interview. One of the questions was, if you could be any kitchen appliance, what would it be, and why... I walked out.
