<p>Thank you, I will definetly give them a call tomorrow.</p>
<p>I read through my school’s [work</a> study](<a href=“http://www2.ucsc.edu/careers/jobs/workstudy.html#paid]work”>http://www2.ucsc.edu/careers/jobs/workstudy.html#paid) information, and it says nothing about converting work study to loans; it’s not even guaranteed! 
I’m really hoping for the best because the city itself is pretty small so the competition for jobs outside (yet close) to the campus will be difficult.</p>
<p>Thanks again!</p>
