hello! im a senior in highschool and desperately need to make money for college. I have $7k already saved up, but I want more flexible/spending money for gas and stuff. paying for college all on my own.

I currently work 33-37 hours/week at a kids hair salon as an assistant, where I wash/shampoo hair, blow-dry hair, detangle hair, help apply tinsel, learn braiding techniques, learn how to do certain hairstyles, paint little finger nails, and besides all of that: clean and computer/receptionist work.

I still want to go to college for psychology but I really love doing stuff with hair. I can't cut hair or anything since I don't have my license (obviously) and can't work anywhere as a stylist. I learn a lot from the stylists and other assistants at my salon though since they are in cosmetology school.

Is there any side hustles/gigs I could do with the experience I have? I can only do simple braids, like dutch, French, and regular pigtail braids, nothing crazy. I also dog walk and pet sit and stuff but that's only with some people I know in my neighborhood. thanks!

Hello! Rising senior here. WVU is currently my top choice due to it's campus, student life, and it's the only school I'm considering with the major I want (sports psychology).

What made you choose WVU? What do you like, not like about it? Is there anything you regret when choosing WVU?

Thank you so much!

Hello! I'm a rising senior applying to and considering UMW as one of my top choices. I didn't think I would like it as much as I did love it, considering it's super small and has just a little over the amount of kids my school has (my HS has ~3000).

What made you choose UMW? What are some pros and cons? Did you consider any other colleges?

The only things really holding me back is the price, how close it is to where I live (about 40 mins, NoVA area), and the opportunity for continuing education, since it's mainly an undergrad school. Thank you!!!
