The path to a debt-free degree is built on a few specific habits. First, shift your mindset to see the work as a high-paying hourly wage; spending a few hours to secure a $1,000 scholarship is essentially earning $200 an hour. Second, don't go it alone. Be humble enough to ask professors or mentors for help, as they are often excited to be part of your potential success. Finally, remember the most important rule: apply early, apply often, and don't count yourself out. Your future is waiting on a few paragraphs.
