Yep.

Junior in the Fall. Bridgewater State University, Massachusetts.

No frat or sports... but I'm a Math major, the head Math tutor, Peer Assisting Teacher for Calc I - III and Abstract Algebra, and I have a 3.94GPA. I guess that explains it. Psycosquirrel (no h) is a super nerd.

Graduated with an Associates Degree in Electrical Engineering Technology this May. I'm transferring to a 4 year school in the fall where I'll start as a junior.

Apply for EVERY scholarship you can!!! Even if you're not eligible. haha

I make about $800 a semester in left over grants alone. Then my scholarships from high school pay tuition and board. Definitely apply for everything and do work-study if you're not working already. Trust me having no loans and just have to pay for Burger King is a great experience.

Andy, I could have shown you how to change a light bulb. All you had to do was ask. I wouldn't even charge tuition.

:P The funnest thing I did was build a surround sound amplifier. Programming PLCs isn't too bad either, but it can be tedious.

It's funny, because I'm an Alabama fan, Auburn just gives more/better scholarships, from what I've been told.

You can probably qualify for some financial aid grants, Thrav. Just talk to someone in Auburn's financial aid department. They should be able to help you out and lead you in the right direction based on your income.
