Which of the following would do the most enable you to cope with those higher expenses without impairing your progress toward a degree?

A. aggressively pursuing loans, grants, and benefactors.
B. taking fewer classes per semester or classes with lower associated expenses.
C. Obtaining a part-time Job
D. forming a student lobbying group to protest the budget cuts.
E. Reducing your consumption of goods and services not essential to your education.

Answer 1

Answer:

E. Reducing your consumption of goods and services not essential to your education.

Explanation:

Reducing unnecessary expenses is an effective way to cope up with the expenses that cannot be neglected. Pursuing loans, taking fewer classes, or protesting are time consuming procedures. Neither can you get the loan right away nor will your protests make any difference within a short time span. Also, you have a fixed academic calendar to complete your courses so cutting down on irrelevant expenses is the best approach.
