pam Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Does anyone know of a reputable site to search for available scholarships without having to pay a huge service fee just to look? I have a senior this year and I don't know where to look. Her school isn't providing much information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john doe Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Try contacting the financial aid offices of the schools she is interested in, they should be able to give a list of available scholarships and grants. I got a couple scholarships and grants when I went to school, they were a great help. With your income, she should qualify for some grant assistance if nothing else.

BenRaines Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 The B.E.O.G. is available to most students. It is the Basic Education Oportunity Grant. Does not have to be repaid. Where would she like to go to school? Ben Raines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenRaines Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Shows how old I am Frank. I thought the Pell grants were another all by themselves. No comment necessary Pam. Ben Raines check out ed.gov There is an online application for government financial aid. With your childrens ages and single parent status she should be eligible for some of that aid.

littlemisschatterbox Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 ummm i don't know if this is still relevant but fastweb.com has scholarships that you can go through and you can sign up to have them send you information about scholarships as they become available.

Guest Lexish Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 If you want scholarships I am pretty sure most high schools have at least a college counselor with whom your son can speak. The counselors at my school have so many resources, yet they are often complaining about how no one applies for those scholarships. Check with the high school, basically. They actually are helpful.
