After being admitted into college, most students will need to be supported financially. Parents, of course, are a major resource for a regular supply of tuition. For some really fortunate ones, fairly well off universities offer scholarships and tuition waiver. Taking a part time job provides another feasible solution for college students to finance their college expenditures. The result of a recent survey among a number of key universities in Peking reveals that more than 56% of college students take part-time jobs in the neighborhood of their college in their free time. If the above ways are not accessible, students might still apply for loans at the bank in times of need if the government adopts the favorable policies concerning higher education.
