So I'm thinking about attending culinary school, and the school I'm interested in includes a 3 month "externship". Try as I might, I cannot find any kind of definition for that word. Google turns up little in the way of definition, and I found definitions at m-w.com, but I'm just having a tough time figuring out how it differs from an internship.

And as long as we're on the subject, has anyone here attended culinary school? Any advice, especially from the financial aid arena, would be more than welcome. I'm trying to figure out how to juggle school, work and single-dadhood, and I'm thinking there has to be a way to get aid to go full-time without having to worry about keeping a job.
