Student Financing Worksheet
Many people find that they can get money together in very interesting ways.
Each way has its own particular strengths and limitations.
"When we are motivated and take
action to do something we love, energy and creativity tend to flow!"
Loan Options:
- Loans from friends or relatives are usually very flexible, have low or no interest rates, and are easy for some people to arrange. They, however, are not available to everyone. Check these out first!
- Banks provide loans at better rates than some places. Banks have personal loans available at rates based on your credit rating. They will provide you with a set payment plan. Having a cosigner with a good credit rating will increase your chances of getting a bank loan.
Your best opportunities will be with a bank that you or a cosigner has a relationship with.
Your local bank: Apply in person.

- Credit cards may have a higher interest rate, but are more flexible with minimum payments. They also often offer low interest rates for up to a year when you transfer your balance to a new card. They are also the easiest way to for some people to get a loan.
- Get Creative: We also know of people who have raised money for their education in a "futures" sort of way. They would sell massages in the future to clients, friends, family, etc. at a discounted rate (less than the going rate for professional massage therapy in their location) if purchased before the student completed school.
- Talk to Us !: Financing opportunities and payment plans change often. Call and ask us for the current information that we have. When we work together, we can find a way that works for you!
We also suggest you keep in mind a few simple figures as in these examples:
Massage Therapy - $40 per
hour (Ave.) Massage Therapy - $40 per
hour (Ave.) Borrowed for education -
$7,000 Borrowed for education -
$8,000 Paid back in massages =
175 massages Paid back in massages =
200 massages Paid back in 1 year = 3.5
massages / week Paid back in 1 year = 4
massages per week Paid back in 1.5 years =
2.33 massages / week Paid back in 1.5 years =
2.66 massages / week
