I have also thought about buying a Multi Family Home within my college town of West Lafayette and then renting it out while I live in it for the next couple of years while I am at school and I was wondering what your opinions of this would be?

For using leverage to acquire properties, did banks, lenders, mortgage brokers, or potential partners require that you held a college degree in order to secure the loan that leveraged your properties?

Many of us lived like we were in college to make it happen at the start.

With the colleges here and being on the fringe of the metroplex there are definitely pockets that are more savory than others.

I can see a broker getting interns from a college. 

Dear BiggerPockets,I'm new I've always wanted to do real estate but recently made the commitment to decide to take action this year with my first deal being a house hack with a multifamily property.I'm a 21 year old junior in college.

Then make sure you pay it off at the end of the month.I'm assuming you had/have college loans, those should be on your credit report too.

I'm originally from New Jersey (specifically South Jersey, even more specifically off Exit 2 on the NJ Turnpike, for all my fellow Jersey people out there), and went to college in Cleveland.

Only worry I have is that I haven't filled taxes yet, I worked as a laborer in hs and college.

My kids are grown, out of college and I was ready to start a 2nd career (2nd career after getting 4 kids through college; 2 out of grad school, 1 into law school and another who incidentally has the best job through undergrad).
