How do you guys pay for personal expenses?

Post by AlexandraHope » Thu Dec 31, 2015 3:39 pm

I am working on a budget for my last semester of undergrad, it just hit me that I will not be working during my first year of law school. This summer I will be working two jobs so I will be saving up some money there but it won't be a lot. How do you guys pay for your personal expenses?

Even in NYC, your financial aid refund should cover you. I came to campus in the Fall with <$100 in the bank, and had about $2K left at the end of the semester. You just have to budget reasonably well.
