does anyone know where i can get a grant for school?

Question

i have already done the fafsa and fastweb. i just want to know if there is anything other than those out there?

Answer 1

absolutely! there are TONS of info out there... and if you ever run into a site that charges, this info is free, and you need to avoid those places.

its all free info

i know its a lot, but take your time... and pick through each and every one.

make sure you pass on what you are able to find and where to others, so they can have help with thier schooling as well.
---------------------
try to aim for grants/scholarships more... they are not to be paid back. its confusing sometimes, but just keep applying. Scholarships usually have a 1 or 2 page application, and require an essay. Take your time with the essay, so yours stands out.

every big (and small) company you see (manufacturer, orgs, corps and groups also) all have grants and scholarships they hand out like candy. Walmart, Kmart, Target, Coke, computer companies etc etc etc

here are some links with a HUGE list of what is available. some you will need to copy and paste into a new window. also, fastweb (take the time to fill it in) will search databases and get back to you with a list of scholarships you qualify for.

Also contact all mens, womens associations in your state, they almost always have grants & scholarships. What ever field you are going into, contact the orgs, associations etc for them; Also check with professional organizations related to your career interests, such as the American Bar Association or the American Medical Association. they also always have scholarships. Research and dig, call then write. Its all worth it.

OVER apply; it doesnt hurt to have too many, and the extra funds can help with housing.

Answer 2

There are a few places I recommend locating money for college. First, I recommend the high school guidance office because they have local scholarships listed. Second, the college's financial aid office and website has a list of outside scholarships from private companies and organizations. Third, the public library has a book listing scholarships with some not even listed on the web. Finally, I recommend Scholarship Experts which is recommended by Forbes Magazine. Good luck!

Answer 3

Call the schools office adminstration area and ask if they have a scholarship / grant program.

Or ask your local social security place if they provide assistance for peope with low income.

Good luck.
