4 Strategies to Save Money in Grad School

Getting through graduate school without putting yourself in the poorhouse

Posted April 22, 2009

Mortyakova, a pianist who is studying for her doctorate in keyboard performance at the University of Miami, adds, however, that for those passionate about a career as a professor, lawyer, dentist, or other professional, a recession is a good time to buckle down to graduate school.

"Going to graduate school is a great thing to do if you can't find a job," she says. Who knows? Once you graduate, a spanking new degree might be just the little extra edge that gets you noticed by employers.

Hi!

I am a Saudi Arabian female.I have done my BA in Education,Majoring in Child Studies at Concordia University, Montreal, Canada. I am very much interested in pursuing my On-Campus master and PhD's degrees in Play Therapy from a respected American University. But the problem is that I do not have enough money for that.And I am not legible for the King Abdullah's Scholarship, because of my age(I am over 30 y). I don't know what to do or where to go. The only thing I know is that I am very eager to learn more about this field, so that I would be able to help sick children especially cancer patients.

Can some one help me please??

Thank you very much, and have a wonderful day.
