Is There Any Other Way to Pay College/university Besides Getting Scholarships?

Posted by Sandra Wright

I mean, Im not well familiar with loans and that stuff, Is there enough money out there for Colleges? Lets put it this way….Im a senior about to graduate, but my GPA really sucks! and besides it, Im not able to apply to scholarships because my VISA won’t let me work in U.S, hence, I have no social security, therefore, I cant apply to FAFSA, soooo, Im screwed! … Im getting my paperwork fixed, but that will be AFTER I graduate. This worries me because I wanted to start right away, but there aint enough money….Im planning to go to a State College(Edison College in FL), then transfer to a public university(University of Florida). I know getting my bachelors is expensive, but Im not giving up!!! So I need the Yahoo Community to help me out on this…are there scholarships for people like me??? at this time??? What can I do??? Any UF student out there?

…I want to earn a bachelor in science to work in the medical field.**
OK let me get this right…Im still in high school ok, I haven’t even applied for college.

My brother pre-paid USD 9.000 so that his daughter can study in any Florida State university. If she goes elsewhere, the money is refunded.

I’d like to do something simillar, but I understand this type of plan is available only to state residents and we don’t live in the US (and are citizens of other countries – namely Brazil and Paraguay).

Still, I would like to pave the way to send my kids to college in the US. Maybe there is another type of pre-payment plan available? Or should I write directly to the colleges asking for information?

Thanks in advance!
Luiz

Cornell Financial Aid Application Online

Posted by Sandra Wright

Law School Grants For Single Mothers

A law degree is probably the most amazing form of qualification both in professional and personal level, but at the same time is one of the most expensive forms of education.

For single mothers, a degree in Law School is something no one ever thinks possible. If you have to take care of your home, children, go to work then spending a lot of money on a law schools is quite impossible.  For this reason some law schools offer financial aids and grants to single mothers that want to study there.

These grants are quite available if you know where to look.  First, you need to ask for information from the universities where you’d like to study. Most likely they’ll have a special program for people like you, who come from low-income households, and they will help you with guidance and information regarding which program is the best for you. The law grants provided for single mothers who want to go to law schools are:

1. Equal Justice Works fellowship – Only fifty students will be granted with this award and only if they meet the criteria – to work in an undeserved community.

2. Law Schools Admission Council Research Grants – Any law student that works on a legal research program is eligible for this scholarship.

3. Elaine Osborne Jacobsen award for Women Working in Health Care Law – a prize money of $3.000 is given to a female law undergrad or a graduate female student allocated as a health care advocate.

The American Bar Association probably has the highest number of scholarships and grants for single mothers. Other institutions that honor these single mother students and grant them awards or gifts are: The Columbia School of Law, The Nation’s Top Law School, University of Michigan, The Washington College of Law, Cornell University and many others.  They believe that by providing financial assistance to these mothers their prestige will rise.

Everyone understands that loans and grants for single mothers are a must. For this reason, the federal government offers as well grants for single mothers. Any single mom can apply free to this program at the online center FAFSA. You need to include the last year’s tax payment records along with your application form.

If you have a law degree then most likely you are a respected member of our society. For this very reason the law schools implemented financial aids and grants for single mothers, so that these magnificent women, who raise their children alone, will become a respectable part of the society.
