This college student had to choose: Go to class, or go to work so she could afford to eat. InvestInYou (In partnership with acorns.)
Because I am a working full-time student, there's not enough time in a day to complete every task that I need to complete. Therefore, I have to weigh my options carefully and decide which has the greater opportunity cost. For example, say I need to attend class at 8 a.m. but my employer calls me into work that morning. I know that I could use the extra hours at work because my utility bill this month is over my budget and it would help me to break even.
In most classes, you receive a limited amount of "free" days to miss without your grade being affected. However, this number is typically small, like two or three for an entire semester. After that, your grade drops with each absence unless you bring in a doctor's excuse, which is another issue in and of itself. Since I'm going to work and not ill, I wouldn't see a doctor.
