According to the National Adoption Information Clearinghouse's website at http://www.calib.com/naic/, there are dollars set aside for students like you.
Some states including Florida, New Jersey, Maine, Texas, and Virginia have earmarked scholarship programs for children adopted through their state foster care systems. To find out if your state has a similar program, contact your State Adoption Specialist.
The Orphan Foundation of America scholarship program has awarded more than $1 million in scholarships to foster and former foster youth. For more information, visit http://www.orphan.org or call (571) 203-0270.
The National Foster Parent Association also provides awards for foster youth. Get an application by visiting http://www.nfpainc.org or by calling (800) 557-5238.
