Yes, there are scholarships for cancer survivors. I found several on a search of Google. However, there might be others listed through a free membership scholarship search website. Also a guidance counselor or college financial aid office might know of others.

You need to go online because you can get scholarships for just about anything. Also you can ask your guidance counselor to help you find scholarships for college.

Go to fastweb.com and fill out a profile. Fastweb.com searches for scholarships. Once you have filled out the profile, they will look for the scholarships for you and email you when you should apply to one.
I have found it to be very helpful. It takes out all of the stress of looking for money.
Good luck.
