ap asked:


I am an undergrad student and know for sure that I want to go to grad school. Other than grants and scholarships what are some of the other options? I have heard that there are companies that ask you to work for a certain number of years and pay for your grad studies. If yes which are these companies?

    Many thousands of grad students get tuition and fees free every year. There are basically two ways this happens. First, in many elite schools there is a real competition between the schools to get the very best students… so if you are, say, the very best psychology student from your college, there is a good chance you could get a free ride to graduate school in psychology. But if you are the fifth best, or tenth best, forget it. Second, lots of large universities like the big state unis have to teach 1000s of undergraduates the basic courses like bio 101, psych 101, writing 101. There are hundreds of sections of these courses taught every semester. Someone has to teach them so a LOT of grad students are needed. If you are a very good student you can apply to the grad school at these unis and they will give you a teaching assistantship - usually that covers your tuition and fees and also pays a modest salary of a few thousand dollars.

    So, it pays to be a good student in your undergrad courses. And it pays very well if you are the top student. You can get a free ride all the way to your PhD if you are the best.
