I'm so fucking depressed. I've get 100/100 and 96/100 in the lastest exams but I can't keep going to the university because I don't have money to travel from my home to the building. I have to throw away my career and knowledge. I don't find a job in this fucking country.
Sorry for boring you with my shit, I had to write it.

    Does your school have any financial aid programs? Consult with school first.

    You mentioned the distance only. So if you have food and clothes and only difficulty is in transportation, maybe negotiate with the school to give you a small room.

    There is always options. So let's try to find one that work out for you. Alright?

    Don't despair. Everything will be ok eventually 😊

    Hate to say it, but college loans are probably your best bet. Hope you're not in the US.

    Start by budgeting. It might be depressing at first, but if you want to get out of this shit, you gotta see how far up you have to swim.
    Just write down all your expenses, all your income and maybe you see something that you can change or cut in order to have more money (I've gone from zero to 300 Euros plus in one month just by doing that. No side job, just cutting costs).
    Also, how far is it? Can't you walk or cycle, that's free after all.
    You're studying for an IT job. Maybe you can offer PC repair services in your neighborhood?
    Last but not least, where do you live?

    You don't need a degree to work in IT
    and at least in the UK you can do master without a bachelor degree

    @Techno-Wizard thanks to this great nation. I have to pay back my student loan in the next 10 years, and I can go nowhere. Ps: I’m not in the states.

    Universities can provide a loan up to £500 per month with no interest (depending on uni) . Try speaking to your student support unit.

    @Techno-Wizard @They loans are for people who can afford them. That means they have the capital to invest the loans into shares so they can profit from it.

    Thanks for your replies guys. Unfortunately I live in Argentina. There is not rooms at universities here. The travel time isnt much, 1 hour but as you can imagine no way to go walking. As soon as I can get some money, I will go to a better country. Live in the third world studying a tech career sucks.

    @LuxARTS OH Fuck... isn't Argentina in almost a civil war because of corruption? Or am I thinking of the wrong country?

    @LuxARTS Even if you drop out, you can still continue later where you left right?
