Question

hello i was just wanting to know if anyone knows where to get a government grants and not have to pay to get info from the company.. im a single mother trying to go to college to become a RN..

Answer 1

apply for financial aid at fafsa.ed.gov. you will need your parents information and you will need to pay it if each semester you fail more than one class but if you pass classes they will probably pay up to 6-8 yrs that your in school. I would suggest u go to your financial aid advisor

Answer 2

Go to your college's financial aid office and they will provide you with all the right resources. The grant is called a pell grant and your school should have all the info. Good Luck

Answer 4

Check out Federal Student Aid Web Site or FAFSA http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

I suggest you explore all federal funding and grant options at the Federal Student Aid website http://federalstudentaid.ed.gov/  

You may also want to read the Handbook of the Pell Grant -- this is an 86 page document that contains everything about the grant

http://ifap.ed.gov/sfahandbooks/attachme...

Or you can call the Federal Student Aid Information Center http://www.ed.gov/programs/fpg/gtepfpg.p... at 1-800-433-3243 and ask them if there are any programs for women of your age

Aside from FAFSA http://www.fafsa.ed.gov  and Pell Grant http://www.ed.gov/programs/fpg/index.htm...  , you may want to explore private foundation grants

Also check out Fastweb http://www.fastweb.com

For private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online http://gtionline.fdncenter.org . It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) and their opening blurb says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." You may be able to find grants from private foundations.
