I have a full time job and I am not in school right now because I don't have the money.

There are always scholarships also. There are some that are just awarded and some that require some kind of written essay and also other forms of scholarships as well. You could try a personal loan through a college and some jobs even have tuition assistance. Student Loans and financial aid is the best way to go though. Unless of course you have previously been in school and failed out (which happened to my husband) and they wont grant you anymore money until your grades improve. usually you can return to school within 1 or 2 years and get the financial aid back again. Well, I hope you get the answer that you are looking for, have a great day!

Scholarships (or "free money") are an attractive way to pay for college because you don't need to pay them back. Scholarship awards range from a few dollars to covering the full tuition bill.
Scholarships are offered by many organizations, including federal and state governments and private sources, such as:
* Employers
* Individuals
* Companies
* High schools and colleges
* Religious groups
* Professional associations
This link has over 2.4 billion dollars worth:

Also go to fafsa.com i know it is financial aid, but you don't have to pay the grant part back. so deny the loans and accept the grants. that's what i do.

Your question could be what major in college has tons of scholarships and money for the taking and no one interested in that major or who will pay me to go to school.
Answer: Nursing, Healthcare, Armed Forces, Finance, Ethnic Scholarships, Union. Finally work-study.

your are stuck! Either cut back on classes and get a job, or borrow the money.
