How I’m getting paid to attend the University of California, Davis…

Written By Justin Huynh

First things first — no, I’m not a super genius who got a full ride research scholarship to attend UC Davis. I knew a couple people who did, and they were far ahead of my capability.

Instead, I did something everyone can do: apply for scholarships.

I spent at least 3 hours a week on applying for scholarships. Out of maybe 15 hours of work, I would usually come back with one scholarship (usually valued at $1000 - $5000).

At the low end of $1000, I made $66 per hour doing this. At the high end, $333 per hour.

”But Justin, you’re still working for that!”

Yeah, well, its minimal work for the payout. Much better rates than minimum wage.

Even better, if you fall into one of the very supported groups (BIPOC, LGBTQ+, etc), there is a ton of support funding for these communities.

So students, set aside 3 hours every Sunday afternoon and pay for your college without manual labor.
