ok, so i recently moved here from Asia. My mom is a book keeper and my dad is an american citizen, but he doesnt have a job because he's sick, his kidneys failed to function. Although the government provides him money for his therapy, still my mom's income is not enough for us to let me go to college. I was wondering if there are any scholarships or financial aid, that will support me to go to college. I dream to take up nursing.

Most colleges offer finacial aid (like they reduce the price you have to pay) if you're family's poor or if you have a guardian that can't work.

Contact the financial aid office of whatever school you're looking at. There are tons of grants, scholarships, and loans available.
Not having the money is no longer an excuse to not go to college.
Good luck.

Some hospitals will put you through nursing school after working there full or part time for a year. Check with the hospitals in your area. Not only do you get put through but you will have hands on experience. See about working as a unit clerk in the ER.

Sure there are lots of things out there. Your best bet is to go to your state's website and type in scholarships. Or if you know what school you would like to attend contact them about financial aid or scholarships

Are you an American citizen? If so than there are lots of funding available. If not, I'm not sure what there is. You'll have to go to the college you are thinking of attending and talk to someone who knows what programs are available. Good Luck.

we have about 6 people at the hospital I work at, that they go to school, plus earn wages, but they had to sign a contract saying when they finish, they will so long for them. Grants out there to look into, wish you luck

Your school counselor can help with this. If you're out of school, check with the counselor at community college. That's their job.
