I am needing to find scholarships or grants for college.?

Question

I make to much to qualify for federal grants; however, I don't make enough to pay for school and bills so I am racking up loans. I am getting my degree through University of Phoenix Online. I have good grades but nothing exceptional. Is there any scholarships for an average person?

Answer 1

Consider attending a community college or a 4 year state university.  You can attend using federal student loans entirely.  UoP is 10 the cost of real schools.  Employers don't pay you more because you got your degree from there... they just realize those who graduate from there are incredibly bad at math and price comparison.

Answer 2

I would focus on scholarships based on essays or personal achievements.  http://www.ehow.com/how_2293183_scholars...
