Homework Help & Tutoring

Finance

Our name 24HourAnswers means you can submit work 24 hours a day - it doesn't mean we can help you master what you need to know in 24 hours. If you make arrangements in advance, and if you are a very fast learner, then yes, we may be able to help you achieve your goals in 24 hours. Remember, high quality, customized help that's tailored around the needs of each individual student takes time to achieve. You deserve nothing less than the best, so give us the time we need to give you the best.

If you need assistance with old exams in order to prepare for an upcoming test, we can definitely help. We can't work with you on current exams, quizzes, or tests unless you tell us in writing that you have permission to do so. This is not usually the case, however.

We do not have monthly fees or minimum payments, and there are no hidden costs. Instead, the price is unique for every work order you submit. For tutoring and homework help, the price depends on many factors that include the length of the session, level of work difficulty, level of expertise of the tutor, and amount of time available before the deadline. You will be given a price up front and there is no obligation for you to pay. Homework library items have individual set prices.

We accept credit cards, debit cards, PayPal, Venmo, ApplePay, and GooglePay.

Finance is a field of money management that involves activities like investing, budgeting, saving, lending and forecasting. It is typically broken down into three subcategories: 

  • Personal: Financial planning for individuals.
  • Corporate: Financial activities related to a corporation.
  • Public: Spending, budgeting and taxing for the government.

People with finance backgrounds often build careers as accountants, financial analysts, corporate finance consultants, financial planners and credit analysts.

When you study finance at the collegiate level, you will take courses focused on mathematics and business principles like economics and market analysis. Financial topics can be complex and often require in-depth understanding to master. Whether you're taking an introductory or advanced finance class, the online finance tutors at 24HourAnswers can provide the academic support you need to overcome the challenges you encounter in your homework.

4 ways to cover college without taking on debt

Federal loans are not your only option when it comes to paying for school

  • Newsletter sign up Newsletter

A college education isn't cheap, and covering that cost often requires students to take out loans. As of 2024, it is estimated that "more than half of students leave school with debt," with an average of "$28,950 owed per borrower," said Forbes .

But what if you could graduate without a massive amount of debt bearing down on you? While making it happen will require some extra legwork, it is possible to cover college through options other than federal loans — or at the very least, to minimize the amount of debt you take on.

1. Take advantage of AP and dual-credit courses

You will need to borrow less in loans if you can knock down the cost of college, which is exactly what taking advanced placement (AP) and dual-credit courses in high school can help you do. In fact, making this move "can shave thousands off your total college bill, and it can also help you graduate early," said Bankrate .

AP courses , which are offered by high schools in subjects like math, English and economics, culminate in a test that, depending on your score, could result in being "awarded college credit," said Bankrate. Meanwhile, "dual-credit courses are those you can take in high school that also provide college credit (often from a community college) to those who earn qualifying grades." The more college credits you earn up-front, the more quickly you can graduate from college. 

Some colleges also offer the option to test out of classes if you score well on the placement exams they offer, which in turn "can help you graduate faster, which can save money on tuition, room and board, and other college-related expenses," said U.S. News & World Report .

2. Search for scholarship opportunities

Scholarships , which can award you anywhere from "$100 up to a full ride," are a "great place to start when it comes to paying for college, mainly because they don’t have to be paid back," said Credible . Further, there is "no limit to how many scholarships you can get," and you can snag them in a wide range of categories, such as "academic merit, athletic skill, financial need, demographic data or other criteria."

Not sure where to start your scholarship search? "High school students should talk to their college guidance counselor about finding scholarships from community organizations, like a local Rotary club," said Dana Kelly, the vice president of professional development and institutional compliance at The National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators, to U.S. News & World Report.

It is also helpful to "apply early to be eligible for institutional scholarships that may have early deadlines," said Money , and to consider looking at "colleges where your academic profile is top-shelf to boost chances of a merit-based scholarship."

Also keep in mind that scholarships aren't just a one-and-done thing — "while students might assume that scholarships are only for incoming first-year students, there are still awards available for sophomores, juniors and even seniors," said U.S. News &  World Report.

3. Consider working part-time while you're in school

By having a job throughout school, you can earn money to cover tuition, books, rent and living expenses, instead of relying solely on student loans .

"Let's say that you are able to work just 20 hours per week, making $15 on average delivering pizzas. That would bring in an extra $1,200 per month. Annualized that would be $14,400. That would make a huge dent in your yearly tuition," said Deacon Hayes, a personal finance speaker and the president of Well Kept Wallet, to Bankrate.

Depending on the job you get, working can also allow you to "get work experience for when you graduate and start looking for a more permanent full-time job," said Saving for College .

4. Be strategic about where you end up attending

Last but certainly not least, where you end up attending college can make a big difference in the amount of debt you graduate with. 

For example, "attending a public in-state college may be one of the easiest ways to avoid student loans — or at least minimize them," said U.S. News & World Report, as "public schools charge much lower rates for state residents than for out-of-state students." You may even be able to "qualify for special grants, scholarships or other incentives from your state to attend a public institution."

If you do not want to stay in your home state, another option to explore is a regional compact, "within which some colleges offer reduced tuition rates to students from participating states," said Money. The U.S. has four compacts, in the West, South, Midwest and Northeast.

The 4 personal finance lessons I wish I had learned in college

If i had paid more attention to my money during college, i would have saved myself a lot of stress..

thumbnail

Terms apply to American Express benefits and offers. Visit americanexpress.com to learn more.

When I was in college, I lived a relatively frugal lifestyle.

I commuted to campus from home (where I prepped most of my meals for the week) and only occasionally spent money on fun like going out to dinner with my friends. My main expenses were transportation and sometimes food, which I could afford with the money I earned from my work-study job and internships, along with the help of my parents.  

While this no-frills lifestyle helped save me money, I now realize a couple of financially savvy moves could have helped me achieve the same result without quite so much sacrifice. If I had the chance, there are a couple of changes I would make to how I managed my money back in college.

Open a (high-yield) savings account sooner  

Living at home with my parents meant being able to save money I otherwise would have had to spend on student housing and meals. Aside from paying the tuition, my parents also made sure that I had some money in my checking account if, for example, I needed to buy food. At the time, I had a Chase College Checking℠ account with my mom, so she could conveniently transfer money into my account whenever I needed it.  

During the second semester of college, I started earning some of my own income through my work-study job, until I graduated in 2020. On top of that, I also earned minimum wage from internships I worked during my last two semesters in college.  

A lot of this money went toward paying my essential expenses like transportation, college supplies and food. But I did sometimes have some extra cash. For three years, I let it sit in my checking account where it didn't earn any money. When I finally did open an account my senior year, it was a Chase Savings℠ Account that only gave me a measly .01% interest each month.

While getting a savings account was the right idea, I should have gone with a high-yield savings account like the Marcus by Goldman Sachs High-Yield Savings Account , which currently earns a 4.50% APY. The Synchrony Bank High Yield Savings Accoun t also earns a competitive 4.75% APY as of writing with no monthly fees and offers convenient withdrawal options.

Learn how to properly use a credit card 

I got my first credit card when my mom added me as an authorized user to her  American Express® Gold Card before I left to study abroad during the fall semester of 2018. While I would use the card every once and a while to book trips while abroad, I mostly stayed clear of it because I was afraid of credit card debt.

But while my fear of credit cards kept me free of debt, it cost me in other ways. For example, had I known about the American Express Travel portal, I could've earned 3X membership rewards per dollar on flights booked directly with airlines or on amextravel.com.  

American Express® Gold Card

4X Membership Rewards® points at Restaurants (plus takeout and delivery in the U.S.) and at U.S. supermarkets (on up to $25,000 per calendar year in purchases, then 1X), 3X points on flights booked directly with airlines or on amextravel.com, 1X points on all other purchases

Even after I graduated from college and got a credit card of my own — the Chase Freedom Unlimited® — I still wasn't using the cash-back rewards in a way that would maximize my money. Instead of redeeming my points to pay for new purchases with Amazon, where the value of each point was only 1 cent, I could have redeemed them for travel-related expenses where I would get 1.5 cents for each point.

Chase Freedom Unlimited®

Enjoy 4.5% cash back on drugstore purchases and dining at restaurants, including takeout and eligible delivery services, 6.5% cash back on travel purchased through Chase Travel℠, our premier rewards program that lets you redeem rewards for cash back, travel, gift cards and more; and 3% cash back on all other purchases (on up to $20,000 spent in the first year). After your first year or $20,000 spent, enjoy 5% cash back on travel purchased through Chase Travel℠, 3% cash back on drugstore purchases and dining at restaurants, including takeout and eligible delivery service, and unlimited 1.5% cash back on all other purchases.

Start paying off student loans in college

Although I earned grants, scholarships and work-study funds for my undergraduate college program, I still had to take out student loans to pay off the rest of the tuition that we couldn't afford out-of-pocket. I planned to wait until graduation, land a job and then start paying off my student loans after the six-month grace period expired.  

But I would have been far better off if I hadn't waited until graduation to start chipping away at those loan payments. This is because once I started paying off my student loans, I realized that I owed about $400 in interest on my unsubsidized loans. I wasn't aware that unsubsidized loans accrue interest from the moment they're disbursed. This means that interest accumulates not only while I'm in school but also during certain deferment periods. Having to pay a few hundred dollars in interest didn't ruin my financial future, but it's something I would have tried to avoid if I had known better.

Learn more about real-world finances

I used to frequently worry about not having enough money but I didn't realize it stemmed from my limited knowledge of money management. Managing and understanding money can be tough and the complicated jargon and countless acronyms don't make it any easier.

Still, I wish I had made a little more effort during college to level up my knowledge of the basics. It would have given me a leg up on building good habits like budgeting and saving and spared me a lot of sleepless nights.

Bottom line

Looking back, I could have saved myself a lot of money and stress if I had taken the time to better understand my personal finances. But I've come to realize that the best thing you can do for yourself is to be patient with yourself.

The text covers all of the topics normally found in an introductory financial accounting (principles of accounting I) text. The table of contents essentially mirrors the table of contents found in the leading texts in this field. I like that this text also covers the classified balance sheet, financial disclosures and partnerships.

Content is error-free, accurate, and unbiased.

Relevance/Longevity rating: 4

The content is up-to-date. Introductory accounting does not change often so future updates should be minimal. The authors used the year 2015 in most of the problem and examples. This might make the text "seem" out-of-date in a few years.

The book is clear and concise. The topics are clearly explained and the technical terminology is appropriate for an introductory level.

The writing, style, and formatting are consistent throughout this text.

The text is divided into topical chapters, which is appropriate considering that the concepts build on each other. The chapters are further subdivided into sub-topics. This makes it easy for an instructor to pick which sub-topics to cover.

Excellent organization and flow. The concepts logically build upon each other and the material is presented in a clear fashion.

The HTML interface is excellent. The book has good graphics, end of chapter content, and even video examples.

I did not notice grammatical errors.

The text is not culturally insensitive or offensive in any way

Excellent book that is comparable to any of the leading financial accounting titles. The authors even provide end of chapter problems, videos, and interactive Excel problems for students. Overall, a great resource! I commend the authors for making something of this caliber freely available.

Reviews prior to 2017 are for a previous edition.

The content of this textbook matches the content and organization of most introductory financial accounting textbooks. It is written by Canadian authors, but is relevant to US students. The text begins by explaining the role of financial accounting in society, and then describes the underlying structure of double entry accounting systems and the process of recording economic events that impact the value of the organization through the journals and the ledger. The records of these events are then summarized into the primary financial statements. The numeric subtotals and totals on these statements are used to calculate standard financial measures and ratios used to evaluate the organization's performance. The text's organization then proceeds sequentially through the balance sheet accounts, explaining in more detail how the accounting for each category of economic value is recorded and reported. The author's decision to move the most complex content to the end of the book matches how most faculty choose to organize their coverage of these topics.

My reviewed resulted in highest marks regarding accuracy. The only possible concern I would mention here is that the authors use a commonly used technique in chapter two which sometimes leads to students misunderstanding that revenues and expenses are not part of owners' equity until the revenues and expenses are closed at year end to retained earnings. It is my preference to teach introductory students that revenues and expenses are distinct and separate from equity, and then explain that revenues and expenses ultimately get closed to equity. So, this is not an inaccuracy by the authors, just a point that some instructors may want to know before adopting the textbook.

It is my opinion that the content of this textbook will be relevant and current for at least a decade. Any changes made to accounting principles, Canadian or International, will be very easy and straightforward to update.

It is my opinion that the clarity of this text is very high. The authors are succinct and use visuals often to highlight the theoretical structures.

This test is very consistent with the framework that is set up by the authors in the beginning of the text.

The textbook is very clearly divided into separable modules, making it easy for both students to read and for instructors to choose which modules to include in their course.

The content of this textbook matches the content and organization of most introductory financial accounting textbooks. It begins by explaining the role of financial accounting in society, and then describes the underlying structure of double entry accounting systems and the process of recording economic events that impact the value of the organization through the journals and the ledger. The records of these events are then summarized into the primary financial statements. The numeric subtotals and totals on these statements are used to calculate standard financial measures and ratios used to evaluate the organization's performance. The text's organization then proceeds sequentially through the balance sheet accounts, explaining in more detail how the accounting for each category of economic value is recorded and reported. The author's decision to move the most complex content to the end of the book matches how most faculty choose to organize their coverage of these topics.

The online text worked perfectly in my Chrome browser. The end of chapter exercises and problems are perfectly formatted on the screen. All assessment materials (quizzes, exams, etc.) are located on a different site that requires registration to have access.

I found the grammar to be very clear, concise and very effective. Because the book is written by Canadians, expenses are sometimes referred to as revenue expenditures, which does not match how US textbooks refer to expenses, but is perhaps a better learning tool, as the expenses are always recorded in the period in which they match the revenue generation, so I support the authors' choices regarding how they refer to the difference between assets (capital expenditures) and expenses (revenue expenditures).

The textbook adequately refers to the international accounting standards. That is the only cultural relevance which is relevant to introductory financial accounting.

I found this textbook and its exercises to be a useful teaching and learning tool. Instructors and students have access to pre-made PowerPoint slides, exercises and problems, and there is the option to enrol in an online service for online assessments, which seem to have student feedback capabilities in addition to assessment gathering capabilities.

Ongoing Commitment to Your Satisfaction

Your question isn’t closed after we deliver your answer. Other finance homework helpers may operate this way, but StudyGate is different. We wait for your final approval to allow for edits. In fact, part of our ongoing quality commitment is to offer unlimited edits so you get the exact answer/project you envisioned. And until that vision is met, we continue holding your funds – meaning your tutor is paid only when you’ve let us know you are completely satisfied.

The StudyGate Difference

When it comes to your academic career, you can’t afford to take risks with tutors who may or may not be reliable. These people could lose your assignment or simply choose not to do it because they don’t have time.

At StudyGate, we reliably and consistently answer questions because we care about the clients we work with. This level of personal attention has enabled nearly 98% of students to ace their assignments after receiving our finance homework help (based on our internal Spring 2021 study). They can then confidently continue their studies knowing StudyGate is here if additional help is needed.

Logical Application of Concepts

Our tutors provide finance homework help that follows a logical flow of ideas. As a student, you need to see the path that connects specific questions and answers so you’re able to grasp the concept. This improves your learning outcomes and builds analytical skills.

Professional Presentation

When you pay for finance homework help online, you expect to see a professional presentation. We’ll meet and, in many instances, exceed those expectations with a neat, well-thought answer and cited references (if applicable). And if you need more clarification, you have only to connect with your tutor and ask for it.

Team of Friendly Experts

Many of our finance homework helpers even strive to make learning fun by injecting assignments with a little humor.

Basic Finance Homework Help Topics Covered

If you’re just dipping your toes into finance coursework, rest assured no question is too “minor.” The need for finance homework help online can arise at any time and with any concept. Take a look at some of the topics we’ve explained in the past.

Amalgamation Whether you’re studying first thing in the morning or last thing before bedtime, it’s easy to confuse amalgamation with the many other terms you must memorize. This word means to combine companies into one entity by also merging their assets and liabilities; StudyGate’s finance assignment help online can explain this in greater detail.

Bond Valuation This technique determines the fair value of a particular bond. While this seems easy on the surface, making that actual determination gets complex. Let one of our finance homework helpers give you a boost.

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) CAPM refers to the relationship between risk and expected return on assets, especially stocks. Rather than try to understand this alone, ask for a little corporate finance assignment help.

Cash Conversion Cycle The cash conversion cycle is a metric that shows the time needed for a company to convert its inventory into cash flow. This is another area where help with finance homework can turn a confusing idea into one that’s easily understood.

Cash Management This seemingly simple term refers to the broad activities of handling, collecting, and using cash. Again, finance homework help online can quickly sort out the details and provide answers to tricky questions.

Advanced Finance Homework Help Topics

Just as we said no finance homework help requests are too easy, it’s also true that none are too difficult. If you’re in an advanced class and have questions, StudyGate is here for you. We can make sense of the most challenging terms, like those listed below.

Merger Types and Rationale Companies voluntarily fuse into one legal entity during mergers. These exist in different forms and present different reasons for doing so, which our finance homework helpers are happy to explain.

Exchange, Interest, and Inflation Rates These three rates are linked in ways that can be tough to catch. And re-reading the same text over and over doesn’t necessarily shed light on their relationships. The best thing you can do is ask for finance homework help online.

International Money and Capital Markets When you start speaking about global markets, the concepts become increasingly complex. With a StudyGate tutor, you can ask questions and get genuine, compassionate help with finance homework.

Theory of Portfolio Management This considers the potential risk and return of a combination of individual assets. You can gain a deeper understanding by asking for help with finance homework.

Areas We Have Provided Finance Homework Help in the Past

In addition to basic and advanced help with finance homework, we’ve also worked with students writing research papers, completing assignments, and even developing intensive projects. You can see our work in action with the sample finance homework help question and answer provided below.

You have $50,000 in savings for retirement.

FutureValue = PresentValue*(1+r)^n

N = ? quarterly periods FV = 1,000,000 dollars PV = 50,000 dollars R = 0.015 compounded quarterly

1,000,000 = 50,000*(1+0.015)^n Solve for n

20 = (1.015)^n n = log base 1.015(20) n = 201.21 quarterly periods n = 201.21/4 = 50.30 It will take 50.30 years to reach the $1,000,000 goal

You most certainly can. We eat, sleep, and breathe our No Bullshit Promise that guarantees timely delivery of your homework. If we fall outside the specified timeline, you can request a refund. We believe help with finance homework should ease stress, not cause it.

What if my finance assignment is delayed for some reason?

Although rare, finance homework helpers occasionally experience emergency situations. These might arise because of family or work commitments, but the point is your tutor will immediately communicate with you if they experience such a circumstance. They will also propose a new deadline, and if that doesn’t meet your needs, a new tutor can be found.

What is finance and its importance?

This broad field studies credit, capital markets, money, investments, leverage, and banking. These subjects are intensive, we know, which is why many students seek finance assignment help online.

Studying this subject can prepare you for a career in the financial services sector, in which you help people understand their financial health. It can also help you make better financial decisions in your everyday life, such as choosing savings vehicles and even investing in stocks and bonds.

Should you do easy or hard homework first?

This is a question that merits great debate, but generally speaking, most people recommend you complete easy tasks first. This allows you the time and energy necessary to focus on more difficult tasks – and ask for finance homework help if you need it.

At StudyGate, we recommend you find a homework strategy that works for you and stick to it. Whether you prefer to study in the morning, during lunch, or at night, and whether you like completing easy or hard tasks first, get to know your workflow and find ways that promote your best productivity.

College presents a unique time in a young person’s life where financial literacy education is particularly important. Our resources for college students cover a number of important topics faced by young people who may be living on their own for the first time. These personal finance resources also lay the groundwork for major decisions that happen shortly after college graduation – like buying a home, a car and managing credit and debt.

Practical Money Skill Curriculum

Below is a library of workbooks, teacher’s guides and presentation materials from the Practical Money Skills Library.

Lesson One: The Art of Budgeting

A personal budget is a financial plan that allocates future income toward expenses, savings, and debt repayment. “Where does the money go?” is a common dilemma faced by many individuals and households when it comes to budgeting and money management.  Effective money management starts with a goal and a step-by-step plan for saving and spending. Financial goals should be realistic, be specific, have a timeframe, and imply an action to be taken. This lesson will encourage students to take the time and effort to develop their own personal financial goals and budget.

Lesson Two: Living on Your Own

As young people grow up, a common goal is to live on their own. However, the challenges of independent living are often quite different from their expectations. This lesson provides a reality check for students as they investigate the costs associated with moving, obtaining furniture and appliances, and renting an apartment.

Lesson Three: Buying a Home

For many, buying a home is the single most important financial decision they will make in their lifetime.  However, the process of becoming a first-time homebuyer can be overwhelming, and requires a foundation for basic home-buying knowledge.  This lesson will provide students with information on buying a home and where and how to begin the process. After comparing the differences between renting and buying, students will be introduced to a five-step process for home buying. This framework provides an overview for the activities involved with selecting and purchasing a home.

Lesson Four: Credit

In today’s world, credit is integrated into everyday life. From renting a car to reserving an airline ticket or hotel room, credit cards have become a necessary convenience. However, using credit wisely is critical to building a solid credit history and maintaining fiscal fitness. While most students have a general idea about the advantages and disadvantages of credit, this lesson provides an opportunity to discuss these issues in more detail.

Lesson Five: Credit Cards

What is APR? What is a grace period? What are transaction fees?  These and other questions will be answered in this lesson as students learn about credit cards, and the different types of cards available and features of each, such as bank cards, store cards, and travel and entertainment cards.  As students start to shop for their first (or next) credit card, this lesson will make them aware of various costs and features. Included in this section is a discussion of the methods for calculating finance charges.

Lesson Six: Cars and Loans

“Should I buy a new car or a used car?”  “Where is the best place to finance my automobile purchase?”  “Is it better to take the rebate or the low-rate financing plan?”  These are typical questions asked by people buying vehicles. In this lesson, students are asked to identify costs associated with owning and operating a motor vehicle. Since these costs are commonly underestimated, guidelines are provided on how much to spend when buying vehicles.

Lesson Seven: Consumer Awareness

Decisions, decisions. With so many choices available to us, how can we be sure we’re making the right decision?  Wise consumer buying starts with a plan. Using a systematic purchasing strategy will provide students with an ability to make more effective purchases. Comparative shopping techniques will be discussed to encourage students to carefully consider price, product attributes, warranties, and store policies. Next, this lesson covers a variety of buying methods, such as buying clubs, shopping by phone, catalogs, online, and door-to-door selling.

Lesson Eight: Saving and Investing

Saving just 35 cents a day will result in more than $125 in a year. Small amounts saved and invested can easily grow into larger sums. However, a person must start to save.  This lesson provides students with a basic knowledge of saving and investing. The process starts with setting financial goals. Next, a commitment to saving is discussed.

In today’s information age, keeping your personal financial information private can be challenging. What you put on an application for a loan, your payment history, where you make purchases, and your account balances are but a few of the financial records that can be sold to third parties and other organizations.  This lesson will discuss how public and private records are accessed and used by various organizations, as well as review privacy laws to protect your information.

NEW YORK (AP) — With graduation season over, many college grads are embarking on summer internships or their first full-time jobs. Navigating your finances when you start adult life can be challenging, from understanding your health insurance and benefits to managing a budget.

Finding a job is often the first hurdle, so if you’ve accomplished that, take a moment to be proud of yourself.

“Once you do get that first job, pat yourself on the back,” said Nick Holeman, director of financial planning for Betterment, a financial advisory company.

Then it’s time to think about your financial future. With credit card delinquencies growing and interest rates still high , it’s more important than ever for recent graduates to start their adult lives on the right financial track.

Here are recommendations from experts about how to do that:

Pay attention to onboarding instructions

Getting your first job is exciting, but the onboarding process can feel overwhelming. When you start a new job, most companies offer guidance about benefits such as your 401(k) and health insurance. It’s a lot of information, but it’s important not to ignore it, Holeman said.

One key thing to focus on is your employer-sponsored retirement plan. While many companies automatically enroll you, Holeman recommends you save more than the typical 2% to 3%. Automatic enrollment allows your employer to take a set amount from your paycheck to allocate to a retirement investment account. You can choose to opt out or increase the amount you contribute.

“Because you’re automatically enrolled doesn’t mean you can’t go in and increase how much you’re contributing,” he said. “And that’s a great way to build those automatic savings habits that around going to take you throughout the rest of your career.”

Figure out your health insurance

This article is part of AP’s Be Well coverage, focusing on wellness, fitness, diet and mental health. Read more Be Well.

Some recent grads might stay on their parents’ health insurance while others might enroll in an employers’ health insurance plan. But if your job doesn’t offer health insurance, experts recommend you enroll in the Affordable Care Act .

“You shouldn’t go uninsured if you are going to be working for an employer that doesn’t offer health insurance,” said Louise Norris, health policy analyst for healthinsurance.org.

While you’re navigating the ACA’s marketplace, you must take into consideration your budget, health, and availability of doctors in your area. If your employer offers several health insurance plans, Norris recommends learning the details of the plans, such as your deductible, co-pays and use policy.

If you’re generally healthy and don’t go to the doctor often, Holeman recommends you choose a high-deductible health plan, because it will allow you to save money in a health savings account , also known as an HSA. An HSA lets you set aside pre-tax money to pay for medical expenses, which can help you cut out-of-pocket costs when you visit the doctor.

Save for emergencies

Emergencies are tough to prepare for because you never know when they will happen and how expensive they will be. However, it’s a good practice to have an emergency fund that will alleviate some of the financial burden if something goes wrong.

“Think of your emergency fund as a ‘break glass in case of emergency,’” said Holeman, who recommended that you keep your emergency savings in a separate bank account.

Emergency fund amounts vary depending on each person’s circumstances but Holeman recommends that you save three to six months of expenses. This is an ideal scenario, but any amount of savings can be helpful in case of an emergency.

Manage your credit card usage

Credit cards can help build your credit score and develop good borrowing habits, but if not used carefully, they can also get you in a lot of debt.

If you’re taking out your first credit card, Holeman recommends that you choose something that you can keep for a long time, since an important factor in your credit score is the length of your credit history. Holeman recommends your first credit card is one that doesn’t have a yearly fee and is easy to maintain.

If you’ve had a credit card before, remember that to maintain a good credit score and not fall into credit card debt, you must pay off your balance on time every month. It’s best if you use your credit card to pay for things you can already afford, recommended Steve Pilloff, associate professor of finance at Costello College of Business at George Mason University.

“Use it as a way to make payments rather than a way to borrow money. Focus on the card and not the credit,” Pilloff said.

Adjust your budget

Budgeting is a key component of your financial life, whether you’re trying to save for your emergency fund or pay down debt.

Budgets change along with your finances, so when you land that first full-time position and maybe move to a new city, you need to change your budget to reflect your current financial reality, Pilloff said.

If you’re using your budget to find ways to cut costs, Holeman recommends you focus on big expenses, such as rent or transportation costs, rather than small ones such as coffee or shopping. If you have debt, Holeman also recommends you first focus on paying off high-interest debt. If you don’t have debt, focusing on building an emergency fund and saving for short-term goals is also a great place to start setting goals for yourself.

Budgeting is not a one-time process. In order to achieve your financial goals, you have to continuously assess and adjust, Pilloff said.

With apps like YNAB and EveryDollar , you can access and easily modify your budget at any time. However, the best way to stick to a budget is finding the format that best works for you, whether that’s an Excel sheet or a notebook.

The Basics About Homework Help Websites–Free and Paid

Homework help websites are designed to help you complete your homework assignments, plain and simple. 

What Makes a Homework Help Site Worth Using

Most of the best sites allow users to ask questions and then provide an answer (or multiple possible answers) and explanation in seconds. In some instances, you can even send a photo of a particular assignment or problem instead of typing the whole thing out! 

Homework help sites also offer more than just help answering homework questions. Common services provided are Q&A with experts, educational videos, lectures, practice tests and quizzes, learning modules, math solving tools, and proofreading help. Homework help sites can also provide textbook solutions (i.e. answers to problems in tons of different textbooks your school might be using), one-on-one tutoring, and peer-to-peer platforms that allow you to discuss subjects you’re learning about with your fellow students. 

And best of all, nearly all of them offer their services 24/7, including tutoring! 

What You Should Should Look Out For

When it comes to homework help, there are lots–and we mean lots –of scam sites out there willing to prey on desperate students. Before you sign up for any service, make sure you read reviews to ensure you’re working with a legitimate company. 

A word to the wise: the more a company advertises help that veers into the territory of cheating, the more likely it is to be a scam. The best homework help websites are going to help you learn the concepts you’ll need to successfully complete your homework on your own. (We’ll go over the difference between “homework help” and “cheating” a little later!)

You don't need a golden piggy bank to use homework help websites. Some provide low or no cost help for students like you!

How Expensive Are the Best Homework Help Websites?

First of all, just because a homework help site costs money doesn’t mean it’s a good service. Likewise, just because a homework help website is free doesn’t mean the help isn’t high quality. To find the best websites, you have to take a close look at the quality and types of information they provide! 

When it comes to paid homework help services, the prices vary pretty widely depending on the amount of services you want to subscribe to. Subscriptions can cost anywhere from $2 to $150 dollars per month, with the most expensive services offering several hours of one-on-one tutoring with a subject expert per month.

The 5 Best Homework Help Websites 

So, what is the best homework help website you can use? The answer is that it depends on what you need help with. 

The best homework help websites are the ones that are reliable and help you learn the material. They don’t just provide answers to homework questions–they actually help you learn the material. 

That’s why we’ve broken down our favorite websites into categories based on who they’re best for . For instance, the best website for people struggling with math might not work for someone who needs a little extra help with science, and vice versa. 

Keep reading to find the best homework help website for you! 

Best Free Homework Help Site: Khan Academy

  • Price: Free!
  • Best for: Practicing tough material 

Not only is Khan Academy free, but it’s full of information and can be personalized to suit your needs. When you set up your account , you choose which courses you need to study, and Khan Academy sets up a personal dashboard of instructional videos, practice exercises, and quizzes –with both correct and incorrect answer explanations–so you can learn at your own pace. 

As an added bonus, it covers more course topics than many other homework help sites, including several AP classes.

Runner Up: Brainly.com offers a free service that allows you to type in questions and get answers and explanations from experts. The downside is that you’re limited to two answers per question and have to watch ads. 

Best Paid Homework Help Site: Chegg

  • Price: $14.95 to $19.95 per month
  • Best for: 24/7 homework assistance  

This service has three main parts . The first is Chegg Study, which includes textbook solutions, Q&A with subject experts, flashcards, video explanations, a math solver, and writing help. The resources are thorough, and reviewers state that Chegg answers homework questions quickly and accurately no matter when you submit them.  

Chegg also offers textbook rentals for students who need access to textbooks outside of their classroom. Finally, Chegg offers Internship and Career Advice for students who are preparing to graduate and may need a little extra help with the transition out of high school. 

Another great feature Chegg provides is a selection of free articles geared towards helping with general life skills, like coping with stress and saving money. Chegg’s learning modules are comprehensive, and they feature solutions to the problems in tons of different textbooks in a wide variety of subjects. 

Runner Up: Bartleby offers basically the same services as Chegg for $14.99 per month. The reason it didn’t rank as the best is based on customer reviews that say user questions aren’t answered quite as quickly on this site as on Chegg. Otherwise, this is also a solid choice!

body-photomath-logo-2

Best Site for Math Homework Help: Photomath

  • Price: Free (or $59.99 per year for premium services) 
  • Best for: Explaining solutions to math problems

This site allows you to t ake a picture of a math problem, and instantly pulls up a step-by-step solution, as well as a detailed explanation of the concept. Photomath also includes animated videos that break down mathematical concepts to help you better understand and remember them. 

The basic service is free, but for an additional fee you can get extra study tools and learn additional strategies for solving common math problems.

Runner Up: KhanAcademy offers in-depth tutorials that cover complex math topics for free, but you won’t get the same tailored help (and answers!) that Photomath offers. 

Best Site for English Homework Help: Princeton Review Academic Tutoring

  • Price: $40 to $153 per month, depending on how many hours of tutoring you want 
  • Best for: Comprehensive and personalized reading and writing help 

While sites like Grammarly and Sparknotes help you by either proofreading what you write via an algorithm or providing book summaries, Princeton Review’s tutors provide in-depth help with vocabulary, literature, essay writing and development, proofreading, and reading comprehension. And unlike other services, you’ll have the chance to work with a real person to get help. 

The best part is that you can get on-demand English (and ESL) tutoring from experts 24/7. That means you can get help whenever you need it, even if you’re pulling an all-nighter! 

This is by far the most expensive homework site on this list, so you’ll need to really think about what you need out of a homework help website before you commit. One added benefit is that the subscription covers over 80 other subjects, including AP classes, which can make it a good value if you need lots of help!  

body-studtypool-logo

Best Site for STEM Homework Help: Studypool

  • Best for: Science homework help
  • Price: Varies; you’ll pay for each question you submit

When it comes to science homework help, there aren’t a ton of great resources out there. The best of the bunch is Studypool, and while it has great reviews, there are some downsides as well. 

Let’s start with the good stuff. Studypool offers an interesting twist on the homework help formula. After you create a free account, you can submit your homework help questions, and tutors will submit bids to answer your questions. You’ll be able to select the tutor–and price point–that works for you, then you’ll pay to have your homework question answered. You can also pay a small fee to access notes, lectures, and other documents that top tutors have uploaded. 

The downside to Studypool is that the pricing is not transparent . There’s no way to plan for how much your homework help will cost, especially if you have lots of questions! Additionally, it’s not clear how tutors are selected, so you’ll need to be cautious when you choose who you’d like to answer your homework questions.

What Are the Pros and Cons of Using Homework Help Sites?

Homework help websites can be a great resource if you’re struggling in a subject, or even if you just want to make sure that you’re really learning and understanding topics and ideas that you’re interested in. But, there are some possible drawbacks if you don’t use these sites responsibly. 

We’ll go over the good–and the not-so-good–aspects of getting online homework help below. 

3 Pros of Using Homework Help Websites 

First, let’s take a look at the benefits. 

#1: Better Grades Beyond Homework

This is a big one! Getting outside help with your studies can improve your understanding of concepts that you’re learning, which translates into better grades when you take tests or write essays. 

Remember: homework is designed to help reinforce the concepts you learned in class. If you just get easy answers without learning the material behind the problems, you may not have the tools you need to be successful on your class exams…or even standardized tests you’ll need to take for college. 

#2: Convenience

One of the main reasons that online homework help is appealing is because it’s flexible and convenient. You don’t have to go to a specific tutoring center while they’re open or stay after school to speak with your teacher. Instead, you can access helpful resources wherever you can access the internet, whenever you need them.

This is especially true if you tend to study at off hours because of your extracurriculars, work schedule, or family obligations. Sites that offer 24/7 tutoring can give you the extra help you need if you can’t access the free resources that are available at your school. 

#3: Variety

Not everyone learns the same way. Maybe you’re more of a visual learner, but your teacher mostly does lectures. Or maybe you learn best by listening and taking notes, but you’re expected to learn something just from reading the textbook . 

One of the best things about online homework help is that it comes in a variety of forms. The best homework help sites offer resources for all types of learners, including videos, practice activities, and even one-on-one discussions with real-life experts. 

This variety can also be a good thing if you just don’t really resonate with the way a concept is being explained (looking at you, math textbooks!).

Not so fast. There are cons to homework help websites, too. Get to know them below!

3 Cons of Using Homework Help Websites 

Now, let’s take a look at the drawbacks of online homework help. 

#1: Unreliable Info

This can be a real problem. In addition to all the really good homework help sites, there are a whole lot of disreputable or unreliable sites out there. The fact of the matter is that some homework help sites don’t necessarily hire people who are experts in the subjects they’re talking about. In those cases, you may not be getting the accurate, up-to-date, and thorough information you need.

Additionally, even the great sites may not be able to answer all of your homework questions. This is especially true if the site uses an algorithm or chatbot to help students…or if you’re enrolled in an advanced or college-level course. In these cases, working with your teacher or school-provided tutors are probably your best option. 

#2: No Clarification

This depends on the service you use, of course. But the majority of them provide free or low-cost help through pre-recorded videos. Watching videos or reading info online can definitely help you with your homework… but you can’t ask questions or get immediate feedback if you need it .

#3: Potential For Scamming 

Like we mentioned earlier, there are a lot of homework help websites out there, and lots of them are scams. The review comments we read covered everything from outdated or wrong information, to misleading claims about the help provided, to not allowing people to cancel their service after signing up. 

No matter which site you choose to use, make sure you research and read reviews before you sign up–especially if it’s a paid service! 

body-cheat-cheating-cc0

When Does “Help” Become “Cheating”?

Admittedly, whether using homework help websites constitutes cheating is a bit of a grey area. For instance, is it “help” when a friend reads your essay for history class and corrects your grammar, or is it “cheating”? The truth is, not everyone agrees on when “help” crosses the line into “cheating .” When in doubt, it can be a good idea to check with your teacher to see what they think about a particular type of help you want to get. 

That said, a general rule of thumb to keep in mind is to make sure that the assignment you turn in for credit is authentically yours . It needs to demonstrate your own thoughts and your own current abilities. Remember: the point of every homework assignment is to 1) help you learn something, and 2) show what you’ve learned. 

So if a service answers questions or writes essays for you, there’s a good chance using it constitutes cheating. 

Here’s an example that might help clarify the difference for you. Brainstorming essay ideas with others or looking online for inspiration is “help” as long as you write the essay yourself. Having someone read it and give you feedback about what you need to change is also help, provided you’re the one that makes the changes later. 

But copying all or part of an essay you find online or having someone write (or rewrite) the whole thing for you would be “cheating.” The same is true for other subjects. Ultimately, if you’re not generating your own work or your own answers, it’s probably cheating.

5 Tips for Finding the Best Homework Help Websites for You

Now that you know some of our favorite homework help websites, free and paid, you can start doing some additional research on your own to decide which services might work best for you! Here are some top tips for choosing a homework help website. 

Tip 1: Decide How You Learn Best 

Before you decide which site or sites you’re going to use for homework help, y ou should figure out what kind of learning style works for you the most. Are you a visual learner? Then choose a site that uses lots of videos to help explain concepts. If you know you learn best by actually doing tasks, choose a site that provides lots of practice exercises.

Tip 2: Determine Which Subjects You Need Help With

Just because a homework help site is good overall doesn’t mean that it’s equally good for every subject. If you only need help in math, choose a site that specializes in that area. But if history is where you’re struggling, a site that specializes in math won’t be much help. So make sure to choose a site that you know provides high-quality help in the areas you need it most. 

Tip 3: Decide How Much One-On-One Help You Need 

This is really about cost-effectiveness. If you learn well on your own by reading and watching videos, a free site like Khan Academy is a good choice. But if you need actual tutoring, or to be able to ask questions and get personalized answers from experts, a paid site that provides that kind of service may be a better option.

Tip 4: Set a Budget

If you decide you want to go with a paid homework help website, set a budget first . The prices for sites vary wildly, and the cost to use them can add up quick. 

Tip 5: Read the Reviews

Finally, it’s always a good idea to read actual reviews written by the people using these homework sites. You’ll learn the good, the bad, and the ugly of what the users’ experiences have been. This is especially true if you intend to subscribe to a paid service. You’ll want to make sure that users think it’s worth the price overall!

Finance Assignment Topics

When you are asked to find competitive finance assignment topics, it is essential to understand the main purpose and do your best to narrow things down without ruining the final outcome. In the majority of cases, financial studies will be related to individual cases or those explorations that are related to organizations and groups. You may be addressing specific financial needs or evaluating the pros and cons of the financial sector based on relevant operations, limitations, or regulations that are applied under the country’s legislation. Regardless if your work relates to risk management or international business assets, your topic must reflect your main objectives and meet the grading rubric requirements.

Another important concern to consider is the nature of your financial essay. It means that you may be composing a personal finance assignment as a reflective paper or doing it as a professional report. The structure of your writing will differ, so you may have to use different wording and adjust your subject a little bit to fit the essay type. As you choose your topic, start by exploring your subject and see whether you can support the main claims with the sources and include keywords from your thesis statement.

Finance assignments are typically required for students pursuing a degree in finance or a related field. However, students in other disciplines may also be required to write finance assignments as part of their coursework.

Types of finance assignments can include research topics such as investment analysis, portfolio management, financial statement analysis, and corporate finance.

  • Investment Analysis
  • Portfolio Management
  • Financial Statement Analysis
  • Corporate Finance
  • Risk Management
  • International Finance
  • Derivatives
  • Financial Modeling
  • Behavioral Finance
  • Financial Planning and Control
  • Investment management
  • Financial markets
  • Financial institutions
  • Real estate

Here is the rundown of the popular financial topics divided by sub-disciplines that are popular among college students. We have chosen several ideas that will give you the basic knowledge and provide you with an inspiring start as you brainstorm the possible choices.

The work with the interest rates will relate to the foreign and national exchange processes and banking. The work with the spreads will be efficient for accounting majors and investors. Here are some ideas for your finance assignment in this regard:

  • Interest rate charging by American vs European banks.
  • Work with the private sector customers.
  • Commercial vs national banks in the United States.
  • Deposit savings during the Covid-19 outbreak.
  • Compatibility of the interest rates in 2022 and 2020 in the United States.
  • Creditworthiness and the individual credit score of an individual.
  • The importance of the loan-to-value ratio.
  • The analysis of the debt-to-income in the private sector.
  • The major differences between the bank spread and the interest rates.
  • Calculation of the interest rate percentage with AI-based tools.

The topics in this area are related to investments and the study of the short-term and long-term financial processes as specific operations are being taken.

  • The techniques to receive high returns on financial investments.
  • The typical dividend payment policies in the United States.
  • Changes in payment of the dividends in the United Kingdom in 2022.
  • Cash dividend vs Stock dividend.
  • Analysis of the Hybrid dividend in the private sector.
  • Real estate studies through the lens of property dividend scenarios.
  • How to choose the correct dividend policy between stable, constant, and residual methods.
  • Restructuring of the company’s financial health with the dividends.
  • The pros and cons of the scrip dividends.
  • Work with the liquidating dividend in the EU countries.

Balance sheet and income flow relate here as the financial evaluation and strategic thinking take place in this branch of financial studies. These will always differ, depending on the country that you are planning to research. Here are some ideas to consider:

  • Operating activities with the cash flow movements in the USA.
  • Preparation for investing activities: financial methodologies.
  • Financing activities through the lens of estimation.
  • Cash-flow statement versus income statement.
  • The presence of Bitcoin payments as the cash flow example.
  • Data Aggregation software and financial cash flow risks.
  • The role of accounting for the hard money scenarios.
  • The benefits of short-term investments in Canada.
  • Commercial papers versus hard cash flow.
  • Negotiation of the quick payment terms and unnecessary spending rules.

The cost of capital is one of the most challenging areas, yet you may apply the famous WACC formula and approach the temporal studies as you work on your choice of topic to narrow things down.

  • The risks related to liquidity and estimated costs of typical equity capital.
  • Privacy concerns based on access to information of the third-party agents.
  • International cooperation and the presented cost of capital.
  • Dealing with market uncertainty in 2022.
  • Voluntary versus legal order disclosure of financial information.
  • The pros and cons of the paid help by the financial grants (government funding).
  • Empirical research methods related to cost estimation.
  • The risks of the momentum strategies and the impulse investment choices.
  • Analysis of cost reduction based on the Microsoft Corporation social projects.
  • The determinants of the capital structure in the United States.

This area requires estimation and clever analysis. Such topics may include presentations and work with famous case study scenarios. The purpose is to estimate, create, and explain the financial value of specific assets or an endeavor before all the involved parties agree on the methods. Here are the financial value topics you must consider

  • The most efficient methods of creation and definition of financial value.
  • Psychological aspect of dealing with the stakeholders online.
  • The purposes and strategies: the difference between the concepts at play.
  • Meeting the financial deadline when estimating the value in progress.
  • Transformation of available resources into financial value assets.
  • The risks of an investment in capital goods.
  • The importance of intellectual property products and copyright matters.
  • Online conferencing as a form of financial persuasion.
  • Management of the value exchange in 2022.
  • Customer feedback and the mental determinants of the financial value.

Here is where you have to study the behavioral patterns of the customers, competitors, and financial organizations. It is usually approached as the “tracking” process where you have to make comparisons and evaluate the possible outcomes. Dealing with the behavioral finances, consider these psychology-driven topics:

  • The role of psychological bias when dealing with financial investments.
  • Allocation of financial assets online: the pros and cons of not being there in person.
  • Working with foreign analysts and their recommendations.
  • How to avoid corporate failure and the impact of the impulse.
  • The challenges of analysis of the stock market among beginners.
  • The importance of self-control when dealing with investors.
  • Ignoring personal interests when making decisions that suit all parties.
  • Personal bias and going against the facts.
  • Commercial presentations as the financial influence on investors.
  • Human emotions factor and short-term financial investments.

If you are working on a business finance assignment, the chances are high that you may approach the global sphere and address international finances. These may include investments, international banking, and financial support for third-world countries.

  • The changes that have taken place in the international financial market.
  • Determination of the digital exchange rate.
  • Purchasing power of third-world countries.
  • Negative effects of financial globalization and the cultural factor.
  • International risk management methodologies as a way to attract investors.
  • American depository receipts: what are the risks at play?
  • Exchange-traded funds: things we must know first.
  • Evaluation and strategic analysis when studying the foreign market.
  • The role of the Ukrainian conflict in the stagnation of global financial markets.
  • The benefits of mutual funds for an educational organization.

As the name implies, we are dealing with financial ownership matters and the stock

markets. You may address management of financial assets and the personal factor value among other things. Addressing the needs of shareholders is one of the most important tasks that a financial student has to accomplish, which is why you must think twice as you choose the correct wording for your topic:

  • The distribution of shareholder rights in the financial institution.
  • The role of the preference shareholder specialists.
  • Working with the debenture holders: the role of financial estimation.
  • The risks related to the equity shareholders.
  • Ordinary versus non-voting financial shares.
  • Reclaims and the redeemable shares in the United Kingdom vs the USA.
  • Financial management of the company: innovative methods and strategies.
  • Corporate exchange and the investment model in the institution vs organization.
  • Profit generation rules: how much control does a shareholder have?
  • Shareholder’s role in the financial security of the foreign company.

While this topic mostly relates to risk management and an estimation of the financial value that one estimates in the end, it is not only used by students majoring in Finance but also by those studying Data Science and MBA disciplines. Here are some concepts that you may consider as you work on your finance assignment based on risks and returns:

  • Analysis of risks and returns in investing processes.
  • Project-specific risks versus global investment programs.
  • How to determine low-risk investments online?
  • The pros and cons of the lower returns when estimating the risks.
  • Preliminary studies and industry-specific risks.
  • Dealing with the competition in financial markets.
  • How to build a solid investment plan based on online resources?
  • Volatility and estimation of the future market risks.
  • Company-specific risks and the human factor as a threat to investing.
  • The pros and cons of the individual stocks based on Bitcoin operations.

These may include anything from corporate finance management to small business matters. Starting with a financial sheet analysis to work with the relevant software, many college students choose related topics that speak of the challenges encountered with financial statements. Here are some bright ideas that you may consider for inspiration:

  • Creation of a multilingual balance sheet.
  • Determining what a company owns by setting a fixed time stamp point.
  • Digital income statements versus hard-copy statements issued by the hired accountant.
  • The role of outsourcing specialists when dealing with the shareholder’s equity statements.
  • Capital budgeting risks and additional financial services.
  • Dealing with the revenues and estimation of financial risks.
  • Data distribution to owners and determination of the income value.
  • Changes to the Financial Accounting Standards Board in 2022.
  • The role of the comprehensive income when dealing with the gains.
  • Creation of the Financial Performance Statement and the P&L calculation.

No matter what topic you are planning to choose, remember that you will have to alternate between personal, corporate, and public (government) types of financial work. It will help you to set the scene and ensure that you avoid touching upon those areas that are not related to your primary course of financial exploration.

  • Government spending
  • Fiscal policy
  • Monetary policy

  • Balance of payments

The topic must represent something that inspires you and a set of rules and problems that you can support with a strong methodology. If your finance assignment topic stands for a claim, it is much safer to start with an argumentative essay subject where you reflect on the general idea of your studies. Choosing topics for assignment, you may already have a writing prompt, which can make things easier or even more complex. The trick here is to make a reflection on your main academic course, so you can base your work on the concepts and subjects that you already know well.

Sometimes it’s extremely challenging to come up with a good topic or find out what an already provided subject means. Things can get even worse when you must start with an interdisciplinary approach to your financial studies and include concepts from a finance-related topic.

How to write the best college assignments.

By Lois Weldon

When it comes to writing assignments, it is difficult to find a conceptualized guide with clear and simple tips that are easy to follow. That’s exactly what this guide will provide: few simple tips on how to write great assignments, right when you need them. Some of these points will probably be familiar to you, but there is no harm in being reminded of the most important things before you start writing the assignments, which are usually determining on your credits.

The most important aspects: Outline and Introduction

Preparation is the key to success, especially when it comes to academic assignments. It is recommended to always write an outline before you start writing the actual assignment. The outline should include the main points of discussion, which will keep you focused throughout the work and will make your key points clearly defined. Outlining the assignment will save you a lot of time because it will organize your thoughts and make your literature searches much easier. The outline will also help you to create different sections and divide up the word count between them, which will make the assignment more organized.

The introduction is the next important part you should focus on. This is the part that defines the quality of your assignment in the eyes of the reader. The introduction must include a brief background on the main points of discussion, the purpose of developing such work and clear indications on how the assignment is being organized. Keep this part brief, within one or two paragraphs.

This is an example of including the above mentioned points into the introduction of an assignment that elaborates the topic of obesity reaching proportions:

Background : The twenty first century is characterized by many public health challenges, among which obesity takes a major part. The increasing prevalence of obesity is creating an alarming situation in both developed and developing regions of the world.

Structure and aim : This assignment will elaborate and discuss the specific pattern of obesity epidemic development, as well as its epidemiology. Debt, trade and globalization will also be analyzed as factors that led to escalation of the problem. Moreover, the assignment will discuss the governmental interventions that make efforts to address this issue.

Practical tips on assignment writing

Here are some practical tips that will keep your work focused and effective:

–         Critical thinking – Academic writing has to be characterized by critical thinking, not only to provide the work with the needed level, but also because it takes part in the final mark.

–         Continuity of ideas – When you get to the middle of assignment, things can get confusing. You have to make sure that the ideas are flowing continuously within and between paragraphs, so the reader will be enabled to follow the argument easily. Dividing the work in different paragraphs is very important for this purpose.

–         Usage of ‘you’ and ‘I’ – According to the academic writing standards, the assignments should be written in an impersonal language, which means that the usage of ‘you’ and ‘I’ should be avoided. The only acceptable way of building your arguments is by using opinions and evidence from authoritative sources.

–         Referencing – this part of the assignment is extremely important and it takes a big part in the final mark. Make sure to use either Vancouver or Harvard referencing systems, and use the same system in the bibliography and while citing work of other sources within the text.  

–         Usage of examples – A clear understanding on your assignment’s topic should be provided by comparing different sources and identifying their strengths and weaknesses in an objective manner. This is the part where you should show how the knowledge can be applied into practice.

–         Numbering and bullets – Instead of using numbering and bullets, the academic writing style prefers the usage of paragraphs.

–         Including figures and tables – The figures and tables are an effective way of conveying information to the reader in a clear manner, without disturbing the word count. Each figure and table should have clear headings and you should make sure to mention their sources in the bibliography.

–         Word count – the word count of your assignment mustn’t be far above or far below the required word count. The outline will provide you with help in this aspect, so make sure to plan the work in order to keep it within the boundaries.

The importance of an effective conclusion

The conclusion of your assignment is your ultimate chance to provide powerful arguments that will impress the reader. The conclusion in academic writing is usually expressed through three main parts:

–         Stating the context and aim of the assignment

–         Summarizing the main points briefly

–         Providing final comments with consideration of the future (discussing clear examples of things that can be done in order to improve the situation concerning your topic of discussion).

Extremely useful tip for students wanting to score well on their assignments. I concur with the writer that writing an outline before ACTUALLY starting to write assignments is extremely important. I have observed students who start off quite well but they tend to lose focus in between which causes them to lose marks. So an outline helps them to maintain the theme focused.

California to add financial literacy as a requirement to graduate high school

What you need to know: California is ensuring that all high school students are taught personal financial literacy before graduating after an agreement between state leadership and NGPF Mission 2030, an affiliate of Next Gen Personal Finance was reached.

SACRAMENTO – Governor Gavin Newsom, Senate President pro Tempore Mike McGuire (D-North Coast), Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas), and a national financial literacy non-profit — NGPF Mission 2030, an affiliate of Next Gen Personal Finance — today announced an agreement to make financial literacy required content to graduate high school.

“We need to help Californians prepare for their financial futures as early as possible. Saving for the future, making investments, and spending wisely are lifelong skills that young adults need to learn before they start their careers, not after.” Governor Gavin Newsom

Senate President pro Tempore Mike McGuire (D-North Coast) : “Financial literacy is a critical tool that pays dividends for a lifetime. There’s a wealth of data about the benefits of learning these valuable lessons in high school, from improving credit scores and reducing default rates to increasing the likelihood that our future generations will maintain three months of savings for emergencies and have at least one kind of retirement account.”

Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas) : “Ensuring our students have the skills and knowledge to thrive is paramount to California’s continued success, and financial literacy is a key part of that educational mission. Our agreement is the culmination of many robust and productive conversations with stakeholders across the state on how best to implement financial literacy into every student’s high school curriculum.”

Tim Ranzetta, co-founder of NGPF and lead proponent of the Californians for Financial Education initiative campaign:  “We commend Governor Newsom, Senate President pro Tem McGuire, Speaker Rivas, and the bill’s authors and supporters for their leadership and commitment to guaranteeing access to one semester personal finance education for every California student. We look forward to supporting the implementation of this essential course.”

This agreement is reflected in AB 2927, sponsored by NGPF Mission 2030, which the Governor will sign. The legislation will require a semester-long personal finance education course available for all California high school students by the 2027-28 school year and make personal finance a graduation requirement starting with the 2030-31 graduating class. 

Once the Legislature passes this legislation, proponents of the California Personal Finance Education Act initiative eligible for the November 2024 ballot have agreed to withdraw their measure.

College savings accounts

The financial literacy bill aligns with state efforts to prepare students early on for a healthier financial future. California’s  CalKIDS program  invests $1.9 billion into accounts for low-income school-age children in grades 1-12 and for newborn children born on or after July 1, 2022 – indicating the need for early financial literacy. All families of low-income public school students – 3.4 million across the state – are able to access college savings accounts created in their children’s names.

Who Is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Fiancé? All About Riley Roberts

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her fiancé, Riley Roberts, got engaged in 2022

college assignment fiance

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her fiancé, Riley Roberts, have been engaged since 2022, but their relationship began over a decade before that.

The New York Congresswoman first met Roberts when they were both undergrads at Boston University. The couple started dating after becoming acquainted during a weekly debate event and remained together throughout their college careers, according to the biography Take Up Space: The Unprecedented AOC . While they ultimately broke up after graduation, they found their way back to each other several years later.

By 2022, Ocasio-Cortez was a household name in the world of politics — and Roberts was ready to pop the question to his longtime girlfriend. Looking back, Ocasio-Cortez admits she was a little unsure about taking the next step. When Roberts told her he wanted to propose sometime that year, Ocasio-Cortez says she told him he'd have to "woo" her and "convince" her why they should get married after being together for a while.

Though her uncertainty was partially driven by the incredible life changes they'd experienced since the first meeting, Ocasio-Cortez says it helped her realize Roberts was the kind of partner who celebrated her success and wasn't made insecure by a woman's good fortune. Ultimately, the couple got engaged in April 2022.

"I feel like I won the men lottery in my life," AOC told GQ later that September, adding Roberts to a list of men who've earned her admiration — from her late father, Sergio Ocasio, to her chief of staff, Gerardo Bonilla Chavez.

So who is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's fiancé? Here's everything to know about Riley Roberts and his relationship with the politician.

He's from Arizona

Pablo Martinez Monsivais/AP

Roberts calls Arizona home, according to Business Insider . Although not much is known about his early life, after graduating from high school, he enrolled in Boston University, where he studied sociology and finance.

He has a career in the marketing and web development field

After graduating from college, Roberts returned to his home state, where he helped launch websites for small businesses as a UX growth consultant. According to a now-deleted LinkedIn account, Roberts also assisted with marketing for HomeBinder, an online home-management service, in 2014.

"I love helping other subscription startups implement the best practices I've developed to quickly and sustainably grow with Facebook Ads, website conversion-rate optimization, and user experience design," he previously wrote on his LinkedIn profile.

Roberts also used his acquired skills to help Ocasio-Cortez early in her campaign, reportedly assisting with digital marketing and Facebook outreach, per Business Insider.

Ocasio-Cortez and Roberts met while they were students at Boston University

The couple met over a decade ago while studying at Boston University in what Ocasio-Cortez described to Vogue as "true nerdy fashion."

They both frequently attended "Coffee & Conversations," a weekly student town hall run by the university's dean of students. According to Take Up Space , topics of discussion ranged from "the war in Afghanistan" to pop culture — and Roberts served as one of Ocasio-Cortez's main "sparring partners."

"Riley was, for lack of a better term, the s----starter," Ocasio-Cortez's friend Eric Baker shared in the biography. "Riley's just as smart as anyone you've ever met, probably smarter, but he would actively say things just to stir the pot."

He added, "Riley was just like, 'This is dumb. Why are we all going around in a circle saying the same thing?' He enjoyed intellectual combat and I think she enjoyed his pushback."

They broke up after college but eventually reconnected

When they graduated from college, Ocasio-Cortez and Roberts went their separate ways. While Roberts moved home to Arizona, Ocasio-Cortez remained on the East Coast.

After spending some time apart, Ocasio-Cortez's mom told the Daily Mail that the couple "reconnected" sometime around 2015. Roberts later moved to New York to be closer to Ocasio-Cortez, where he worked out of their apartment in the Bronx.

They like to keep their relationship low-key

Bebeto Matthews/AP

Although Ocasio-Cortez and Roberts have known each other for a long time, they prefer to keep their relationship out of the spotlight. The pair were also private about their romance in college, with one friend admitting she didn't even know they were together until several years after graduation.

While their relationship is now public knowledge, they have still kept things quiet. Roberts infrequently appears on Ocasio-Cortez's social media accounts and rarely photographed together.

Occasionally, Roberts is even confused as a campaign volunteer instead of Ocasio-Cortez's partner.

They got engaged in early 2022

In 2022, news surfaced that Ocasio-Cortez and Roberts had gotten engaged.

She confirmed the personal news on X (formerly Twitter), sharing that it happened in her family's hometown in Puerto Rico. Ocasio-Cortez also noted they planned to take some time to enjoy their engagement before planning the wedding.

"It's true! Thank you all for the well wishes," she wrote in a reply to a post about the news. Ocasio-Cortez also told Business Insider , "We got engaged last month in my family's hometown in Puerto Rico. No future details yet, we're taking some space to savor this time before diving into planning."

Ocasio-Cortez's family are fans of their relationship

Roberts has the full support of Ocasio-Cortez's loved ones, particularly her mom, Blanca Ocasio-Cortez, who can't wait for them to tie the knot. During a 2019 interview, she had nothing but kind words for Roberts and shared her hopes for the future.

"I love him. He is the most loving, supporting person I've seen. He helped her tremendously during the election," Blanca told the Daily Mail . "I know they love children, and they do very well with children from the family. So, I hope they get married soon, although they haven't told me anything about their plans."

Roberts is supportive of Ocasio-Cortez's career

Roberts has been by Ocasio-Cortez's side since the very early days of her political career. Although he prefers to be behind the scenes, family and friends say that Roberts encourages her journey and serves as her "grounding force."

During Ocasio-Cortez's run for Congress, her campaign was chronicled in the 2019 documentary Knock Down the House , where Roberts could be seen assisting Ocasio-Cortez.

"Everything from the emotional to the strategic to the practical, he has been a really important partner to her," director Rachel Lears told Business Insider.

Now that Ocasio-Cortez has been sworn into office, Roberts is showing his support in other ways. In a profile for Vogue , it was revealed that Roberts often walks Ocasio-Cortez to work, keeps her company if she ever has to stay at the office late — and sometimes even serves as her unofficial bodyguard.

Looking back on their relationship, Ocasio-Cortez shared that Roberts has been unlike any other man she's dated, many of whom "freak out" when an independent, successful woman starts being themselves. Fortunately, she explained that Roberts has been the opposite.

"He has been so supportive and willing and deeply engaging. He's not a witness to this. He dives into the fray for himself in that he uses what we go through as opportunities for personal growth. And it's incredible," Ocasio-Cortez told GQ .

Roberts has faced some criticism since Ocasio-Cortez took office

Despite the fact that Roberts has chosen to stay out of the spotlight, he's still faced criticism in the media.

When it was revealed that Roberts had a House staff email address, a conservative political strategist posted on X that Ocasio-Cortez was attempting to provide Roberts with a salary paid for by taxpayers.

Ocasio-Cortez quickly shut down the rumors , explaining that the reason Roberts had a House email address was so that he could have access to her Google calendar, much like many other political spouses and families.

The Reason My Son Refuses to Get a Job in College Is Ridiculous. I Made the Mistake of Telling Him So.

It only made matters worse..

Pay Dirt is Slate’s money advice column.  Have a question?  Send it to Athena, Kristin, and Ilyce here .  (It’s anonymous!)

Dear Pay Dirt,

My son is 19 years old and in college. He refused to get a job his first two semesters because he was too busy with his girlfriend, with whom he ended up sharing his dorm. I was not aware of this girl’s existence in that manner and now, because I let my son know how disappointed I am of him… it only made matters worse. In their mind, it’s him and her against the world. Yet neither of them work full-time. This is a gentleman I would always see with a book in his hand. How do I knock some sense into him?

—College Job

Dear College Job:

You don’t. Your son is 19 years old, and biologically speaking, he’s nowhere near ready to take on the responsibilities of being a grown-up. His brain will still be developing well into his 20s. But, he is legally an adult, and you have to let him start to experience the consequences of his actions.

But before we get there, how’s the rest of his life going? Is he getting good grades? Is he able to focus at all while being in this relationship? Is he letting his other friendships fall to the wayside? If he’s getting good grades and having fun, but you feel he should (or already promised to) contribute financially to his education, that’s one thing. If his grades are sliding and you think getting a job will be “punishment” enough to get him back on track, that’s another.

Assuming it’s the former, decide what you think his contribution should be. The next time he’s home, you can sit him down and have a conversation with him that goes something like this:

You: Son, we need you to help out with your college expenses. Son: But I’m working hard for my grades and don’t have time. You: In life, we all have to make choices we don’t particularly like, and we can’t fund your beer money anymore. We expect you to find a way to contribute X amount to your schooling.

Then stick to it. Don’t bring up the girlfriend. Don’t bring up what you had to do when you went to school. This is just about his agreement to help—you’re asking him to stick to that.

And a word of advice for you: don’t think making him get a job will get him to dump the girl. Instead, try the opposite approach: make friends. Invite her in. As my friend Michael likes to say, “Be on the acceptance committee, not the admission committee.” That way, it might be you, your son, and whomever he’s dating at the moment, against the world.

Want Advice From Pay Dirt?

For questions on the money issues in your life try submitting to  Pay Dirt !

Our oldest child is looking to buy a house with his two best friends. They have already started looking into getting pre-approved so they know what price range to look into. They are also setting up a joint bank account where each can deposit their share of household money (mortgage, utilities, groceries, and a little each month to save up for possible repairs).

I have recommended that they talk to an attorney to make sure they are covering their bases for co-owning a home with non-family members. I know there are different types of titles and that they should consider up front how they would handle things if one of them needs to move and the others want to stay. What other questions should they be checking with an attorney about, and what other considerations should they be talking about amongst themselves?

My husband and I have told them we’re happy to accompany them on tours of prospective houses to help them ask the right questions, and keep them from falling in love with a place before they’ve seen things like the house inspection. It’s been 20 years since we bought our house. Are there any questions we didn’t have to ask then that we should be asking now?

—Kids Just Wanna Buy a House

Dear Kids Just Wanna Buy a House,

I love that your kid is making such a smart choice for himself. The earlier you can buy a house, the wealthier you’ll be later in life.

Buying a first home is exciting, stressful, and scary, especially now. The real estate market is in a place it’s never been before: Interest rates are high, and so are home prices. In a normal economic model, when prices rise demand falls. Unfortunately, according to economists, the U.S. housing supply is short by over 7 million homes . So, the real estate market is behaving strangely.

The good news is your kid and his friends are on the right track. The attorney should set up a partnership agreement that outlines how much they are each putting into the deal and how they can exit should the need or desire arise. They’ll need to decide whether to buy as joint tenants, with rights of survivorship, or as tenants in common, where they each own one-third of the property. They’ll also need to write wills once they own real estate, just in case something happens. Finally, they need to decide how much they can afford to spend. Getting preapproved, rather than prequalified, means the lender will commit in writing to funding the loan, provided the property appraises out in value. It’s the right move.

Other issues will pop up, and how they deal with them will tell a lot about how well they work together as a group. As I recommend in my book, 100 Questions Every First-Time Home Buyer Should Ask , they should each make a Wish List and Reality Check. The wish list is everything they want in a home, including the neighborhood, school district, size, shape, look, and feel of a house. Go right down to the kitchen appliances, if that’s important. The Reality Check is everything you can’t live without. For example, you might want a four-bedroom, three-bath house but absolutely can’t live without two bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. They should all prioritize their separate lists, then come together and make a single list. Negotiating in good faith is a useful skill for this group to have.

Here are a few other things to think about. First, we’re mostly in a hot seller’s market, where buyers are often scrambling to make the winning bid. But not everywhere. As I write this, the housing market is cooling (a bit) in Florida, Austin, TX, and other places. So, they should choose an experienced real estate agent who does a lot of first-time buyer deals and may be able to guide them to finding a good deal.

Also peculiar to this market are pocket listings, which happen when listing agents advertise a property internally, to other agents in their company, before publicly listing it, giving them first dibs at bringing the property to their colleagues. Technically, pocket listings (known officially in the National Association of Realtors code as Section 17: Clear Cooperation ) are against the Realtor code of ethics. However, they’re commonplace right now. I don’t think they’re good for sellers , because I think you want to showcase your home to as many buyers as possible. But if your buyer’s agent is well-connected, it could work in your favor.

Finally, in April 2024, the National Association of Realtors and some of the biggest real estate companies entered into a $418 million agreement that will supposedly change the way home buyers and sellers pay commissions when they purchase and sell property. Going forward, listing agents can’t advertise that they will split the commission with the buyer’s agent. The buyer is supposed to be responsible for paying the commission. And supposedly, with the listing agent taking only half of the total commission, the seller will lower the sales price.

There have been a lot of headlines proclaiming that this settlement will make things easier and cheaper for buyers and sellers. I disagree. I don’t think anything will change , and the agents I’ve been speaking with tell me that’s how it’s already playing out. But your kid and his buddies will have to sign a new agreement with their buyer’s agent saying that they will pay the agent’s share of the commission. Hopefully, they can work with the buyer’s and seller’s agent to ensure the commission gets paid out of the sales price, and doesn’t require them to do some fancy footwork with their lender.

My husband and I are closing soon on a HELOC for some major home repairs. Our bank has an option to convert it to a fixed-rate home equity loan. The interest rate we’d be able to fix it at is about three points higher than our existing mortgage, but actually a point or so below the usual market rate right now.

I came of age in the 2008 financial meltdown, and I’ve heard so many horror stories about adjustable mortgage rates that I’m tempted to go ahead and lock it in, then try to refinance if we need to in a couple of years when rates are better. But I’m also hearing that it’s likely rates will soon drop, in which case we’d have locked ourselves into the higher rate for no reason. Depending on how I think about it, it’s like we’re betting against ourselves—or like expensive insurance. How do we figure out what to do?

—Fixin’ for Trouble

Dear Fixin’ for Trouble:

A home equity line of credit (HELOC) is a fairly expensive game right now. That’s why interest rates are so much higher than for a 30-year fixed-rate loan.

But let’s address your concern about adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs). ARMs have some built-in protections, including this: They can’t go up more than one or two percentage points per year, and are limited to no more than 5 or 6 percent total. Still, that’s something, so I do understand your concerns. It’s scary to think your interest rate can float upwards when you’re borrowing a significant sum. But there’s good news for you here, too. The interest rate on an ARM can also decline.

My husband, Sam, and I initially chose a fixed-rate mortgage when we bought our house. After interest rates started falling, we went with ARMs, for our primary home and rental properties we’ve owned, and then refinanced as interest rates came down. We started at around 8 percent and ended at around 2.6 percent, and saved tens of thousands of dollars over the years because ARMs are typically less expensive than fixed-rate loans.

But that isn’t necessarily true when it comes to HELOCs with an adjustable rate. Because investors are jittery about HELOCs at the moment, it’s tough to get those loans securitized. So, I’m thinking, take the conversion and lock in your home equity loan. If interest rates decline later this year or in 2025, you can always refinance. And, yes, if that’s how it plays out, you’ll have paid a little extra for the privilege of a good night’s sleep.

I work in an education setting, in a small team, and it is demanding work. I was diagnosed with cancer and had to take a medical leave, as the pace would have been impossible with treatments and side effects. My two closest colleagues who I enjoyed working with were with me when I received the phone call at work. They SHOWED UP at the beginning, coming over to my house, supporting the projects that my departure left hanging, and one even cut my hair.

I was trying to see through one particular project, as I was the point person for everything. Decisions were made without me that made the continuation of the project more challenging than it needed to be (changing the already established and widely shared schedule, re-starting work that had already been done, etc). After the completion of the project, the same colleague who cut my hair threw me under the bus to our boss, sending an email that complained about something I’d done (based on information she’d given me) causing a problem. She had not told me about this problem that I could have solved with one phone call. Later, my boss told me that she’d given this annual project to this colleague to complete next year, despite working under the assumption that I’d be back by then.

I feel like my colleagues, who I was friendly with (if not friends), have edged me out of my job. They are good people. What happened? The thought of returning to work with them causes me a lot of anxiety because I don’t trust them. I attempted a conversation once, which I thought was honest. We’re all trained in non-violent communication and mediation.

—Cancer Took My Hair, My Friend Took My Job

Dear Cancer Took My Hair, My Friend Took My Job:,

Yep. This feels like a double gut punch. Your colleagues not only seem to have forgotten about you, but now one has moved in by undercutting your performance and taking over your responsibilities. I’m sorry you have to deal with this on top of your very serious health challenges.

Assuming you’re back at your job, you’ll need to figure out how to work with these people. You’ve tried to have a direct conversation with them. Perhaps you should try again. It’s possible that your colleagues believed you weren’t coming back—or, perhaps they saw an opportunity to get a leg up in a competitive, stressful world. Or, maybe as they took over more of your responsibilities, they felt more distance between you. If you can’t get to peace with them on your own, you could try a mediated conversation with HR and your boss. And, about your boss: While you talked to her about the annual assignment, have you spoken with her about what you’re supposed to do now that your work has been reassigned?

You may have an opportunity for redress. Under the Family Medical Leave Act , you’re entitled to return to the same or equivalent job upon your return from your medical leave. If your boss has permanently reassigned your primary responsibilities and refuses to put you in a nearly “identical job” with the same or substantially similar duties, responsibilities, status, identical pay, and benefits, you could talk to HR about your rights under FMLA. In that conversation, you can ask for help getting you back to where you were. You can also look into filing a complaint with the Wage and Hour Division (866-487-9243 or find a local office online ). An attorney specializing in labor law would be able to walk you through your legal options.

Even if you get back your reassigned work, that won’t fix the bigger issue of feeling like your work friend stabbed you in the back. Only time will tell if you and your colleagues can work through this. In the meantime, make your health a priority. Because if you don’t have that, the rest of this is just noise.

Classic Prudie

My good friend “Mary” set me up with her brother “Jim” in January, when he moved in with her from out of state. We’ve been dating ever since. While Mary was happy for us, she was sad to not have a partner herself. So when Jim told me in March that he was going to prioritize her feelings because she was having a hard time, I understood. (By that time we were a “pod” of three, and being the third wheel can be rough.) Initially, their close sibling friendship seemed nice. But then Mary got possessive.

College Hill: Celebrity Edition Recap: Saucy Santana crosses the line with disrespect

Saucy Santana is dragging what is shaping to be an interesting season down.

Randall Barnes

As College Hill: Celebrity Edition reaches mid-season, Saucy Santana seems as if he's never going to get his act together.

When College Hill: Celebrity Edition Season 3, Episode 3 started, I genuinely felt it might become one of my favorite episodes of “College Hill” ever. From a TV production and storytelling perspective, the episode was excellently crafted, seamlessly blending the narrative of celebrities visiting the plantation with the value of an HBCU education.

However, the issues that bothered me from the start of this season have seemingly grown into a larger problem, overshadowing the goodwill this season offers. This makes me genuinely worried about what next week's episode will be like for the cast as they strive to improve their standings in their courses.

You had me in the first half, I'm not gon' lie

The historical context of African Americans being castigated for learning to read and educating themselves during slavery when they visited the Whitney Plantation Slavery Museum was beautifully paralleled with Saucy Santana's behavior throughout the episode. It was compelling to watch especially as the theme of black people overcoming despite the odds was consistently broached throughout the first half of the episode.

The episode did a fantastic job of integrating black history, which stood out as one of the highlights. “College Hill Celebrity Edition” reaches audiences who may not be familiar with HBCU life. Many viewers don't have direct connections to HBCUs; they might only see snippets on social media. This episode underscored the importance of understanding that the “H” in HBCU stands for “Historically.” The history of these institutions is deeply ingrained in the fight for civil rights, resilience, and defiance of the status quo.

Dr. Sheron Roberts, Chair of Mass Communications at XULA, delivered impactful remarks on the importance of properly educating HBCU students. She is correct about how HBCU students are often underestimated by those outside the community. People that aren't familiar with HBCU life often look down on the value of an HBCU education.

Her comments about HBCU students having to be several steps ahead of the competition were both inspiring and telling of Saucy Santana's missed opportunities. She pushed them to understand the platform that they were giving both Xavier Univeristy of Louisiana and HBCUs being on the show and to take the responsibility seriously. And, of course, Saucy Santana has consistently decided not to.

Yes, the social experience of college is different but…

The point I always come back to is the fact that these celebrities don't have to be a part of this experience. They can live their lives the way they always did, balancing their work in the industry with whatever fun they want to have. But, they came here for a reason. They wanted this college experience. Why not embrace it fully for what it is?

Here's my takeaway from almost every episode of this series, across all three seasons. Whether it's Ray J or Stacey Dash, who appeared for a few episodes of Season 1 before leaving, the common thread is clear: you don't have to be here. What is your why? Your why can't be that you want to turn up and get lit like you're a traditional college student. That's preposterous within itself.

I think people often forget that college is more than a social experience. It's where you grow academically, physically, and emotionally, and prepare yourself for financial success. College Hill Celebrity Edition is addressing this issue in a meaningful way, as they always have.

I can agree that the social experience is what sets undergrad apart from other educational stages in a student's life. When you compare college to grade school (kindergarten through 12th grade) or even to postgraduate school, the differences are significant. These distinctions often pertain to the academic rigor and the deeper dive into your chosen career field, along with the challenges that accompany it.

However, the social experience in college is unique. As an 18 to 22-year-old traditional college student, you are on a campus surrounded by peers who are typically similar in age and background, though the vaired cultural differences based on region, city, and location make each encounter unique. This social environment is what truly differentiates the college experience.

I believe that the media and social media often trick prospective students into forgetting that undergraduate studies are as academically challenging as any other part of their education. Significant investment goes into your success, whether you're funding your education yourself, your parents are saving up, you have a scholarship, or you're receiving federal or private financial aid and loans.

Where are your priorities? You're not here just to hook up or party on campus. Your primary goal is to earn a degree, and then enjoy the college experience. Attend the step shows, probates, and football games. Celebrate at HBCU rivalry games, classics, tailgates, homecoming concerts, and celebrity lectures. That's fine. Those are great social experiences that aid in your development. However, it's all pointless if you're not attending classes and learning.

Did the celebrities set their expectations appropriately?

And that's the part that really gets to me about College Hill: Celebrity Edition. I consistently notice a disconnect from reality when it comes to these celebrities and their indifference toward the academic experience. What did you really expect? Did you watch the first two seasons of College Hill: Celebrity Edition? Once you move past the Amber Rose and Joseline fight, did you actually watch the Alabama State season?

Once you look beyond Ray J's often hilarious ineptitude or Slim Thug's persistent flirting with Dream Doll, despite her clear disinterest, did you grasp the essence of the Texas Southern season? Did these celebrities even bother to explore the archives and watch the original College Hill from Virginia State and the Virgin Islands?

I found it funny how they suggested going out to drink, having a hookah, and meeting Tamar's fiancé, but then you didn't complete your Political Science homework. Why are you going out? If you've completed the assignment and put in the effort, then great, we can celebrate. However, the whole cast of celebrities left the house just to have fun and ended up with a failing grade in the Political Science class.

I get the rigor of college life takes some getting used to but, at some point, there has to be a group of celebrities that are brought on that understand what all of this is about and aren't shocked that this is an accelerated program for adult learners. It shouldn't shock you that for a class that you're completing in what appears to be a week or so you're going to have homework and important assignments.

Saucy Santana has to go, no joke

For the past couple of recaps, I've taken Karlous Miller to task for how he's acted and his defiant, uninformed stances on homelessness. But, per this episode, he's cleaned things up a bit and stopped being as disruptive and dramatic. But, even when he was being combative and difficult, he was still going to class and participating in the experience. Saucy Santana has found every reason to slack off and it's getting embarrassing.

The entire incident involving the toy doll, which he seems uninterested in now, and his attempted manipulation of Dr. Florastina Payton-Stewart, XULA Academic Advisor and Associate Provost, trying to shift blame onto her for trying to talk to him, claiming he was attending class when there's video evidence proving otherwise, proves that he should not be on this show. This isn't the reality TV show for him, and that's ok. But, don't disrespect well-meaning people who are only trying to help you with this experience and protect the image of Xavier University of Louisiana, one of the top HBCUs in the nation.

I don't know what happens next with this season but Saucy Santana has to go. Maybe he gets his act together and drills down on his work as the season goes on. But, we're four episodes in and he's not getting it. Something has to give.

Looking ahead

It seems as if the cast is about to really go after each other in a class debate that pits the women against the men and Claudia gets emotional. The preview supports my theory that this cast is contentious and not that close with one another. The BET Awards last Sunday, in which they presented the BET Her award and didn't seem that close either, supports my case even more. I'm interested to see how this season ends and if there even is a graduation. How things are looking, there might not be.

College Hill: Celebrity Edition  Season 3  is available now  on BET+.
