Given your situation, you are a prime candidate for a pell grant. You will most definitely receive one if you apply. The max amount per year now is $5350(? - something like that).
Follow the link below and fill out your info. You will need last years tax return. You will also have to pick a school to attend and the expected number of hours you will be taking.
Fastweb ( posted above) is a good resource for scholarships.
3 kids, single, it will take alot of work but it will be for the better.

You can try for a pell grant and student loans! There are grants out there for low income families but right off the top of my head I can't tell you what they are! Call the college you are thinking of going to or your local DHS office and they should be able to help you out! GOOD LUCK!!

Go to your local college. Ask if they have a scholarship for going back to school moms. Also fill out the financial aid forms, you can probably get your college for free. I know someone who does...she has 2 kids, single, and no income.

Yes, you are in luck, there is money for a single mother returning to school. As mentioned by others fastweb is an excellent resource. Also, do a search for single mother attending school in (your state). Good luck to you.
