Should I get a job during the first semester of freshman year or wait until second semester?
I really need money both for college and for my pockets. I've heard people say not to get a job as soon as you start college and to wait until you get settled in and I've heard the exact opposite.
At my age (55) would it be to my advantage to continue pursuing my Masters in HRM?
I have a fear of my age may deny me some opportunities in my new degree field and was wondering if I do go for my masters would it benefit me more at my age. #human-resources
Being 55 when I graduate with my Bachelors in Human Resource Management what is the likelihood of getting hired within a reasonable time frame?

Is it worth going to graduate school for art? Would it help me get a better job in that field
I plan on majoring in art in college but I am not really sure what I will be able to use it for after college. So, I would think that going to an even higher level of education for it would be futile, but then again it might help. #phd

Do most student loans have to start being paid when you are still in college?
College is expensive and I am wondering if I should take out student loans or not. If I have to start paying it off right away and not after college, then I do not want to get them because I do not have a lot of money as of now. #college
