Re: How to work... or make it work.

Ultimately, if you're going to attend school you have to do what is required to complete the program. That certainly includes paying the bills and doing what it takes to come up with the money. There really isn't much point to being in a program if you don't have time to do the required recitals and class work to the required standards. Many people sell their homes, move to a new town, get a modest place to live and invest their life savings and take out loans to achieve a goal. If you're the kind of person that replies by saying I can't do this or that then you might as well just hang it up because of the mindset of "can't". If you're the kind of person that has their eyes open to all the possibilities and then makes a rational decision to proceed (or not proceed) based on the facts and your choices then you stand a chance at making it happen. There are no easy answers but where there is a will there is a way. Good luck.
