Blog ideas for students

Student loans and financial aid
A high percentage of college students are applying for some sort of financial assistance during any given school year. And with the help of your blog discussing various methods of helping students apply for financial aid and helping students pay off their student loans might prove to be a useful tool for them. Discussing FAFSA, the (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and its various pros and cons of using the online portal might be another great topic worthy to elaborate upon at your student blog.

Textbooks
Let’s face it…purchasing textbooks from the actual school’s bookstore can be quite expensive. Especially for the budget-minded student who is at the same time paying for housing and a student loan that they just recently aquired. You could discuss the cheapest places where students could purchase textbooks at the lowest cost. Or even discuss the various online and in-person brick and mortar outlets that sell discounted textbooks to students.

Study material
There are several websites that host a variety of study material for students while covering a wide range of subjects. You could host a forum which could be an online gathering hub for students to help each other prepare for their exams. You could offer the most helpful forum users special privileges and unique titles to distinguish them from the other less helpful users.

Housing
Many big name universities and even smaller community colleges offer students various housing opportunities. Your student blog could discuss the current rates for dormitory’s (dorms) based on the ip location of the student visiting your blog. Besides listing the current rates for college dorms, your blog could also compare the lowest and highest rated dorms and their featured amenities.
