College

xdirtydiscox · 2009-08-25 15:00:28

Hi everyone, I'm starting college next week and have tried all summer to get a part - time job but to no avail. I'm 18 years old and I was just wondering is there any 'Back To Education Allowance' or anything I might be entitled to because I dunno how I'm going to cope for the year not having a job. If nobody can help,…

Hi everyone,

If nobody can help, does anyone know anyone who's taking on part time staff :P

Thanks

Try here.

Or post in the forum of the college you're going to. Besides the grant, student bars/shops normally hire people and someone might know something in the college forum.

Ask a mod to move it to student finances.
