<p>As a freshman, I wasn’t employed until the end of the year. Probably $100-150 a month. My parents paid for tuition and textbooks. They didn’t give me an allowance per se - I would just ask. </p>
<p>Once I got a job, I didn’t get allowance. I mean sure if I needed money, I would just have to ask. I started going out a lot more and worked a lot my second and third years of college to pay for personal expenses.</p>
