many community colleges will accept an ACT score of 17, but i'm attending a private liberal arts school in nebraska and their lowest is 18. possibly just try taking the ACT one more time will up our score the extra point/points you need to make your college choices more numerous.

In stead of taking in Home Study, why don't you go to regular school? I believe there is No, and will Never be financial aid package or scholarship offered because the basic requirement for these ones is full time student.\nYou can visit here for some useful information (not for U.S but good information) http://www.icslearn.co.uk/

Try taking the ACT or SAT.  If you score high, you may be eligible for some scholarships, depending on how high.\n\nAlso, many who do not qualify for Pell Grants still can get student loans, which do not need to be paid back as long as you are in school at least half time (6 semester hours).\n\nDid you go to the FAFSA website and apply for federal aid yet?  If not, do that first.

I had financial aid to a private school.  You apply the same way you would for any college.  The FAFSA application.  It stands for free application for financial student aid.  The ammount of aid depends on full or part time status and the price of the school.

Sure you just need to complete a free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) This all you need to apply for fedral & state student grants.

You most likely don't qualify for financial aid. But, many, many scholarships disregard wealth and focus on things like academics, which appear to be your forte. Go to collegeboard.com and make an account there. In the Students section they have a scholarship thing where you fill out a bunch of information about yourself, and they find scholarships that you are eligible for. Also, if you haven't taken your SATs yet, collegeboard.com is the place to sign up. I suggest taking it as many times as you can afford, because the worst thing that can happen is you get a higher score. ;-)

There are waivers or grants that can help with or completely pay some admission fees. Check out options with the financial aid office at each school and it's time to submit the FAFSA! If you are a non-traditional student or low income you should have help available. Good Luck to you and Congratulations in taking the first step to higher learning!

FAFSA does require tax information.  I would talk to a financial aid representative at the school in which you intend to use your financial aid to get a clarified answer.  It probably depends on the reason why you arent filing for your taxes.

Happens all the time.  Just about everyone has an ACT or SAT score used to determine there college eligibility.  Many schools will use those as the true indicator of your chances of success at their institution.  YOu could ask for an exception if you feel strongly about it.

No one has a worst credit rating than me (I am not proud of that) but I have gotten student loans every year.  You can't get max if you don't qualify. You must fill out the FAFSA . It will tell you how much grant you get..you will get enough loan to cover the rest of your living costs (minus grant or personal contributions).

You certainly can! SAT/ACT scores can help if you want to go directly to a university, but I'm sure you could attend a community college without a problem. If you check around at community colleges, many have "articulation agreements" so if you want to go to a university the articulation agreement will ensure that certain schools will accept all of the credits you earn there (a problem many transfer students face.) Community colleges cost less and typically offer more financial aid, so you could save yourself time & $ by going this route. You'll have a bunch of pieces of paper in no time! Good luck & congrats in advance!

not nessesarily.. some have tests that they offer at there facilities that, for them, are equivelent to the SAT and ACT scores.. not every school offers this, and almost all require or heavily recommend you taking the SAT/ACT

For certain types of aid, it's never too late.  Call your school or check on their website to see what their deadline is.  If they say it has passed, find out if you can still file to be eligible for *something*. It can't hurt to try.\n\nFor the fastest processing time, file online at www.fafsa.ed.gov -- and make sure you apply for a pin (http://www.pin.ed.gov) to sign it or the results will be delayed.
