Question

You could probably get a pell grant.

a lot of schools have lists of scholarships on their applications, and many are available to young or single mothers.

Answer 2

You should probly fill for fafsa on the internet. I know if you have problems or have questions about fafsa call you financial aid department at school. After you fill out you fafsa then you will recieve a financial aid award letter telling you what types of grants you qualify for. IF thats not enough money you can get student loans through your school.
