Ultimate Grant Secrets?

Question

I was wondering, had anyone heard of this, or has done it. I'm trying to go to college and need all the help I can get. I heard grants were pretty helpful so I was wondering before I pay my money for this, is it worth it. The site is ultimategrantssecrets.com Also, and if not this one, are there any other good sites that offers help with grants and so forth. Thanks

You do not have to pay money to find grants for college tuition. The government provides a free application for anyone to sign on and fill out on the FAFSA website. The government grants grants for college is based on a percentage of your family's income and savings along with your income and savings. I will list some free websites to locate money to attend college.

First, the college's financial aid office and website has a list of private scholarships offered from outside organizations and companies. Sometimes a college major's website will list scholarships, too.

Second, the public library has a book listing scholarships with some not even listed on the web.

Third, the high school guidance office has a list of local scholarships and state scholarships & grants. This can be done in the senior year.

Fourth, a campus work study job can help with money needed during the school year. The program is funded by the federal government. It will be a job on campus and most times can work to your availability schedule. There should be a box on the FAFSA form for it.

Fifth, fill out the FAFSA form after January 1 of your senior year of high school. It will qualify her for need based financial aid from the federal government and the school itself. It will come in the form of scholarships, Pell Grant, student loans, and the work study program.

Sixth, study and practice for the SAT or ACT tests. It can help bring merit scholarships from the college itself. Prepare for the PSAT which could bring in scholarship money with excellent scores. I recommend using test preparation book, software, or a test preparation course.

Seventh, states do offer grant and scholarships for students with excellent grades. Search Google.com and Yahoo.com for these grants and scholarships with your state's name.

Finally, I recommend joining several free membership scholarship search websites. There are scholarships for a variety of things including ethnicity, clubs, hobbies, and even wearing duct tape to the high school prom. Most are updated on a regular basis. Most offer a customized search based on information entered onto a form on the website.

Good luck!

I wouldn't go so far as to call it a scam, but you will ultimately be paying for them to do something you could easily do yourself. Finding the grants is not all that difficult. Getting them is the hard part, and they can't do a thing to help you do that. That said, if you are willing to pay the money, they do provide lists of grants to check out, if that is all you are looking for. Good luck!

I wouldn't suggest paying money to access that site, it could be a scam. Instead check out some Matthew Lesko books at the library for free, he is suppose to be the foremost expert on all types of grants. Also check out his website www.mlesko.com/g2/index4.htm
He looks kind of goofy with his yellow question mark printed suit but he seems to know his stuff. Above all remember don't pay for ANYTHING on the Internet, until you first research in the library and book stores and ask teachers for help.
