With current rise in living cost I disagree but ya you can save up cut down stuff and move to less luxurious apartment to save up money.

I’m about to graduate in a month as an engineering student.

My dream is to one day work for NASA. So I want to get hired somewhere in the aerospace industry. But it just seems so hard to find a way in.
Amazing dream dude don't give up. Aerospace is awesome domain. I would swap your place I had same feeling when i did undergrad in Electrical Engineering . Keep applying and ask your seniors for Intern in their aero lab or do masters for better experience if you feel your undergrad studies was limited .

Rockwell Collins, Honeywell these are really good companies they do work in aero domains. Start building by working in one of them.

So I think I might need to start looking at other industries. And it’s just a bit sad because I feel like I’m abandoning my dreams.
You can still get job at nasa . Just keep an eye on job portal .
