357,501!  We’re climbing!  As I got my butt in gear this week I managed to get a few articles done so we’re going to be adding a Tuesday post now focusing on tips and tricks for students while they are in school.  Again, if anyone has any topics that they want to see on My University Money, feel free to let us know.

We will also be posting our scholarship challenge next week so stay tuned for that.

Have a great weekend everyone!

This is the last month of summer and students everywhere will be getting ready to get back to school.  I remember that September is pretty much a write off for most students and there is always something to do if you’re looking to get into trouble… Man do I miss school…

Anyway, if you missed it, check out my article on scholarship applications and let us know what you think.  We’re still trying to work out our scholarship contest and we hope people can spread the word to any students they know, its pretty easy money…

I can’t believe it’s the end of July, pretty soon I guess I’ll be experiencing the familiar -40 degree windchill in a few months, can’t wait!  This week has been a great week for posts and Teacher Man and I have decided to bump up our posting schedule in the upcoming month.  Our Alexa Rank is dropping at a nice pace (535,819 at the time of this posting)  and we are excited to keep on rolling.

We have decided to use our advertising income made so far ($100) on a scholarship.  We will be drafting up a contest/entry rules and we’ll be hoping to have a winner by mid-September once tuition is due ;).

We have also created our Start Page and we are hoping it will give new visitors a better idea on what we’re all about upon their arrival.
