Roll Call! Signs You Went To An HBCU
Friends with Financial Aid Workers
In this day and age, college tuition can run anywhere from $20,000 and up – and that’s if you stay in state! Private schools average around $43,000, and while some people earned athletic or academic scholarships or came from money, many others had to rely on financial aid. A good part of any student’s day can be spent down at the financial aid office filling out forms, telling their story with extra emotion in the hopes of receiving sympathy from anyone who’d listen. The workers at the financial aid offices at HBCU’s were always some of the nicest and most down to earth people on campus and the younger ones would hang out with some of the students after hours.
