2. Try dual enrollment while you are still in high school. A lot of states have this option available. You can be enrolled in High School and a local community college at the same time for free and get credits for free. If you do it right, you can graduate high school and have an AA degreee at the same time. How cool would that be?
   
   
3. Attend the community or state college for the first two years. The credits you earn at a state school are worth the same as a private school or prestigious university. Get all your general studies for that AA degree at the community college for lower tuition.
   
   
4. Take clep tests. There are 34 clep tests available that you can take instead of sitting through an entire semester of class for a fraction of the cost. So you can get your credits faster and cheaper by taking CLEP tests.
   
   
5. When you sign up for scholarships, sign up for lots of them. You will probably get rejected by most of them, but it's a numbers game. You will get accepted by some if you just sign up. Most of them want you to submit an essay, and they will base their decision on that. This is by far the easiest way to lower tuition. It doesn't cost anything, so try it out!
