Question

I don't want to pay for information. I suffered from dyslexia and I am a student majoring in theatre. So please give me accurate advice and helpful information

Answer 1

The commercials about free government grant money is not as easy as it seems. Some colleges do offer help for disabled students, so I recommend going to the disabled students' office. For the government grants for educational expenses, it is dependent upon yours and your family's income and savings which can be located under the FAFSA form. For medical expenses, it is dependent on family income and savings, but if you are trying under medical, dyslexia does not count typically under the normal government programs for disability help. However, you still might want to try the local department or office of vocational rehabilitation in your area. I have included some free links below for more information. Good luck!

Answer 2

A major factor in getting federal/state grants for school depend a lot of the amount of money you make. If you show need for more money they will cover almost all your educational expenses. As for medical if your income is low enough you can get medicaid. Fill out a FASFA for at your school or online(through the schools website) sign up for classes and see what you get awarded if it's not enough drop all your classes or find other scholarships or grants you can apply for. Your schools finacial aid dept will help you out as well just set up an appointment. As for medicaid check with your city's medicaid office you can usually yahoo local their location/phone number.
