Is there any way to find out if there's scholarship money available for someone to get into rehab? I'm in dire need of getting my daughter off drugs and back on track to her future, but there's no sense in putting out money for college if she's still addicted to drugs. So, the question is, are there drug rehabilitation centers out there which offer grants or scholarships of any kind?
Thanks for the help..............email me at kdlnaplesfl@yahoo.com if you have any suggestions for me.
When applying for FAFSA - remember this is a goverment program, therefore, the website is (.gov) NOT (.com)
FAFSA does NOT charge a fee for applying - EVER!
here is the actual link you would use
http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/index.htm
That would depend on what your son's needs are. For example, if he were to attend college, then he would apply for FAFSA...
You would have to be more specific with your post in order to get a more specific answer.
This is a VERY confusing issue. Your best bet would be to talk to the financial aid office at the school they want to attend.
You can claim a full time student up to age 23 ( as long as they are attending school full time)and get the EIC credit. SAVE those receipts from your college purchases for taxes!
However, when applying for FAFSA, they do look at your income. FAFSA is based solely on income, family make-up, and expenses.
Scholarships and grants are another matter. Depending on the guidelines, they can be based on any different qualification: income, race, gender, religion, course of study, athletics, parent's job ( fireman, policeman, civil service/govt worker, etc), disability, etc.... Some schools set aside funds strictly for students who lack the income to attend.
Plus there is always a work study program which can help defray some costs and help the student earn extra cash as well.
Agai, check with student services and the financial aid office of the college your child plans to attend for the best possible advice.
Question was:
Does claiming a student as a tax dependant effect Fafsa and their chances for loans, scholarships, grants Etc.
Is it better not to claim them and for them to claim their self?
Thanks, Don
Question:
How do I know which grant would fit my son's needs?
I can't believe that you honestly think of yourself this way. I do a lot of grant research as a living and hopefully you have either read the newspapers or heard on the news about the many so-called politicians that have been involved in some sort of grant-related crime.
There is a vey big need for medical professionals and I really think that you should start looking at the financial aid office of the school that you want to attend. They would best know of any grants and/or scholarship programs that you might be eligible to apply for.
WOW.. you have a lot to learn... any day you want to trade lives, I would be happy to do so...
In the mean time, apply for FAFSA and other scholarships as well as student loans.- check with the school you plan to attend for more resources.
I am a single 24 year old woman. I guess I have done things the wrong way and am waiting till I get married to have childern. I am trying to go back to school to work in the medical field but because I am American, White, Single, No Kids I can't get the funding I need. I work, pay taxes and am being penalized for doing things the right way. I understand that if I didn't work, or had a couple kids I could get a free ride and have the state pay for my kids by people like me who pay taxed and work for a living. I think I should go have random intercourse with someone and oops get pregnant and be able to get a free ride in life. You are welcome to all the single people with kids who don't work because you have kids, alot of people have kids and still work, but that I could help support you and yours by working and paying taxes. You are being rewarded for making bad decisions, not that the kid is a mistake in anyway, but you the parent are to blame. I now get stuck in a regular job, not being able to go to school cause my parents weren't rich, work for the government and because I don't have kids and don't work. Tell me how that is any way fair?

I am a 26 year old female who wants to go back to school for a masters degree in Interior design. I need help with paying for school. Are there any grants or scholarships awarded to people looking to change their careers by furthering their education in the arts?
I am a single mother, currently working on my last leg of my associates in criminal justice. Upon completion, I will be continuing my education in hopes of completing my bachelor's in criminal justice. As of right now I reside in California and am looking to relocate out of state; I am an online student so no interuption will take place in my education.
My question is are there any grants or scholarships that would be worth looking into? My FAFSA for 2010-2011 was submitted this evening. Should I be on the look out for other $$$ to assist me in my educational quest?
Single Mothers
"I am a single disabled mother living in a small town. I have just returned to college here and plan to graduate in spring of 08 and transfer to the University of Bakersfield. Are there any scholarships that I could apply for and is there something that would help me catch up on my heating bill and get me a good computer? My email address is k~@c~.com. Just in case you needed to know my major is social science. Thank you." K~
Thank you for your email. I will address your first question. Time and time again I have noted on both pages about grants and grant-related information about the availability of grants/scholarships and funding for those that are disabled, single working mothers and or those wanting to continue their education. The answer to your question is "Yes" there are scholarships and funding that you can apply for. As a matter of fact the number of funding programs that you are eligible to apply for increases because of your disability and the major that you have chosen. I know for a fact that there is an organization devoted to helping single mothers and will even help in them paying back their student loan. I found out about this organization when I was finding grant programs for a client who is also a single mother. And this is just one of many programs. You have to understand that these funding programs (including the scholarship programs) were put in place to help fill a need. In your specific case the fact that you want to continue your education in the field that you mentioned above is one of the reasons why there are scholarship programs at all.
I guess you read all the news about the grants / scholarships and other programs that the President has set aside for those who want to go back to school?
Number one there are some colleges that will pay your FULL tuition! As sad as it is to say there are some predominently black colleges that will pay the FULL tuition of white students who apply.
Secondly you should check with financial aid office of the school that you want to go to to find out what programs can help you with paying your way through school.
I have mentioned it before but my very first client was a single mother who was looking for grant and funding programs to help pay her way through school. Plus she wanted to start her own daycare business when she graduated from school. I was able to find her 4 grant programs that she was eligible to apply for - so that should just go to tell you that there are such kinds of grant programs out there. Here is an excerpt from one of my pages about grant programs
My last completed project was for a client that is a single mother and I managed to find 4 funding programs for her.
There are also programs out there that will help a single mother pay back some or all of her student loans! There are also other programs out there that will pay off all or part of your student loans depending upon the kind of work that you choose to do. A lot of these program are for teachers.
I would also suggest that you look for more grant programs simply because with grant programs you will not have to pay the money back and your credit rating will have no bearing on you applying.
Another thing too - the more loans you get the more money you will have to pay back - so that is why I suggest you look more into grants and scholarships -because there are just too many of them out there!
i am a 26 year old stay at home mom and i have very bad credit due to years ago. i am trying anything to get a studint loan for school can anyone give me ideas?? i already apply for the pell grant

Hi,
I'm a 5th semester vet student at a caribbean school. Our private loan company has recently dropped our school due to the economy. I can't get gov't loans because my school is not title IV certified. I am taking an additional class online from a US school to get some gov't loans but it is not enough to cover living expenses and tuition for vet school. An additional loan is available through wells fargo but I can't get it because I don't have a cosigner. I am from a single parent home and my mom is a senior citizen currently going through lchemo for lymphoma, so she can't help me at all. Does anyone know of any options? All these politicians say there is all this unused money, how do I find it?!! I really don't want to drop out of school. I have applied to transfer to a U.S. school but they aren't taking anyone right now, as they only do if someone fails out. Please, if anyone knows anything, it would be appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

If you know what type of scholarship that you are applying for then it is as simple as following their rules and guidelines for applying. The students who are considered most for the scholarships are the ones that follow the guidelines and rules of the application the best.
this would be my first time applying for a scholarship, what should i do first?

Hello there, I would first check out trade schools in your area that offer classes for LVNs, their financial aid office can help you with the Grants, Scolarships and loans, it usually will take you 18 months to complete an LVN program.
Once you have completed this you can start working, I would go and get a job at a hospital as most of them have education programs where they will pay for you to continue your education so you can proceed to
a RN program.I will tell you to take a lot more math classes as the entrance exam for a good RN school is not easy and has a lot of math (Algebra) involved but you can do it.
I am 17 and a high school senior. My transcript grades are not too impressive due to math(which i suck at). I want scholarships and grants for nursing but i am unsure of where I could go to get the best aid. My email address is j.reid92@hotmail.com

My son just found out today that the $5,000.00 football scholarship that he was promised when he signed to play football with Bemidji State University is not going to happen. it seems that the coaches do this very frequently at BSU--promise $ to get you to sign and then "sorry, we just don't have enough to go around". This is heartbreaking for my son since he now will not be able to continue with college and it is the end of his football dream. i have to try to find a way to find some kind of financial help for him. I am going to try to find a part-time job in addition to my current fulltime job to help him as much as I possibly can. Any suggestions anyone?
