Does anyone know where I can get financial assistance. I filled out my FAFSA and I don%26#039;t qualify for aid, so I%26#039;ve taken out about $12,000 in school loans already and Iwant to know if there%26#039;s a better way to do this. I work full-time, but I make too much for aid, even though I can%26#039;t afford my bills. I%26#039;m 25 yrs. old, I recieve no money from my family, I couldn%26#039;t get schlorships because I got my GED when my father left, so I could work 2 full-time jobs to support my family when I was sixteen. I want to finish school so bad. I want to be a Radiation Therapist.
Schlorships or financial aid ?
Hello!
I%26#039;m Tory and I actually write a weekly Financial Aid Blog that can help you. My article this week (should be up in a few days) is all about scholarships and interesting ways to make it easier to pay for school.
I reccomend checking out my webpage http://www.toryforpresident.com. It%26#039;ll have some information I%26#039;m confident will help your questions about financial aid, loans and scholarships.
Basically, you can get a scholarship for anything- you just have to try and apply. There are SO MANY scholarships that go unclaimed every year because people do not apply or not know they exist.
What I recommend is googling your favorite hobbies/characteristics and the word scholarship. I found hundreds of crazy scholarships by doing this.
Also web pages like these will let you search for them as well:
www.scholarships.com
www.fastweb.com
www.college-scholarships.com
www.finaid.org/scholarships
www.guaranteed-scholarships.com

Schlorships or financial aid ?
I would recommend contacting whichever college you are interested in attending, and ask to speak with one of their financial counselors. They know all about various sources for money. And apply for EVERYTHING, not just the big money grants. If you can write an essay and get $500 or $1000 towards books, its worth it, right?
Good luck!!

You should go to your financial aid department at your school and they should have a list of scholarships that the school provides for their students and some others that the school doesn%26#039;t personally give out. At the school I%26#039;m attending they have one scholarship that isn%26#039;t just based on your financial figures, and let%26#039;s you explain your current situation (which I think is helpful). You could also look online, they have tons of essay scholarships or scholarships if you%26#039;re a minority, etc. Give it a look.
Good luck!

The college you are wanting to attend should be able to help you, just call your school of choice financial aid office.
