There are numerous ways to pay for a college education. Some of the typical ways are:
- financial aid....borrowing money from lenders (banks, relatives, government, etc.)
- scholarship (academic/athletic)...using available money that is earmarked for such a purpose as your education
- employer-paid...(many companies and businesses understand the advantage of having employees that are continually growing and expanding their knowledge/skills/abilities (KSA)).
- one's personal savings
- state/taxpayer supported means (e.g. state lotteries)
