Paying for Grad School in Electrical Engineering?

This question is mostly for those who live in the US!
I really wanna go to grad school (my GPA 3.2). But how the heck am I gonna pay for this, guys?
I am open for any ideas…please help.

Answer:
Well, if you can go full time and plan to do a thesis, many schools provide a stipend and tuition remission. I got my MS in ChemE completely free (and indeed made some money in the process). At the university that I attended, they paid my tuition and provided $13,000/yr stipend. Not a lot, but it paid the car payment and the like. They did not cover fees or books and I had to still pay part of the parking permit. So, if you're willing to sell your soul to grad school, that is a good route to take.

Look into becoming either a Teaching Assistant or Research Assistant.

I'm studying at the University of Minnesota Graduate school right now and I work as a Teaching assistant for 20hrs a week. This position gives free tuition plus a stipend. It's a pretty good deal!
