Do you live on campus because dorming is pretty expensive and you are generally better off finding an apartment nearby with roommates.

It's really about cutting as many corners as you can get. Like if a friends is going to sell back there used book to the store for 50% the price ask to buy it from them for 60-70% because the bookstore will generally just knock off a couple bucks and pocket the the difference. Don't get a huge meal plan if you can buy food and make it yourself.

I honestly don't know if any of that will help you but that's how it is at my school and I'm pissed that I wasted as much money as I did. :/
