<p>Hello there,</p>
<p>I am aware that many U.S students are studying abroad for their undergrad education. How exactly did you guys overcome financial hardships (i.e, no financial aid)? I have my heart sent out on the University of Edinburgh, however the idea of me paying $20,000+ scares me just a bit....</p>
<p>My mother has agreed to fund me throughout my four years of education (about $7,000), while I can shell out $5,000 for textbooks and personal finances. Also, I will be studying part-time for 3 years.</p>
