Receiving financial aid from single parent scholarships
August 16, 2011
Mothers who are on their own may think that college, a better career and a secure life for their families may be unattainable, but often it's actually their fear holding them back. By delving into the many college resources that are available both online and elsewhere, they can secure the funding needed to further their careers.
There are a multitude of grants for parents and financial aid for moms that can make going back to school or heading to college for the first time a reality. Mothers can start first by filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to see if they are eligible for the Federal Pell Grant or subsidized student loans.
Pursuing college scholarships in your own community or future business sector is another great way to find funding. You can secure extensive support by conveying the importance of education to your development and by demonstrating your potential to excel.
Going back to school and making the necessary financial plans starts by having the drive to visualize your goals and do everything possible to attain them.
