Attending college was not Chloe's first choice. She would rather learn about the world by traveling around it. But due to family and societal pressures she is pursuing her degree.
Chloe does receive money from her family but it is still not enough to cover all of her expenses. She currently works two part-time jobs and has taken out federal and private loans to pay for her education. This is on top of a full class schedule.
She could take more money out in student loans to not have to work but she chooses not to so she can lessen her debt burden when she graduates.
Chloe says that even though her jobs are giving her valuable experience for her future the added time commitment has negatively affected her grades.
