What kind of scholarships, grants, or stipends can I get for taking classes to be a EMT/Paramedic?

To tell you the truth I don't know. I am going to school to become a Paramedic right now. I am in the EMT-Basic class. I can tell you this if you go to a community college that offers the EMT classes Financial Aid will pay for it. I am going to Schoolcraft College in Livonia, Michigan where I am taking the emt basic class and next semester the Paramedic class and finacial aid is paying for everything. Also, if you do not go to a community college and you go somewhere else to get your liscense I do know that a lot of ambulance companies do offer tuition reimbersment. Suce as where I am at Medic One, Huron Valley Ambulance, Community EMS, etc. all of them offer tuition rembursiment after you get your liscene and get hired on. I hope this helps and the best of luck.

Apply for as many scholarships as you can. Look into Federal Loans and Grants. Check into The TAP if you are in the US, it's a grant that gives you money and you don't have to pay it back. You have to qualify for it. There are resources out there....This site will definately help you out! Good LUCK!

try scholarships.com;  also try big companies like Coca-cola, Pizza Hut, McD's, and even Papa Johns pizza has scholarships.  You'd be surprised at the number of places that do offer scholarships.  Also, your local state education website should have some good scholarship information.  Try your state department of education and even call them for info.  Best wishes on your search...there are lots of them out there

Anything is a help for someone with money trying to get an Education. Two ways you can approach this. Contact your State Board of Education and they may help. OR, this what I would do; Contact a College of your choice maybe a college she went to or liked and they set this up with that college. You can state specific requirements to qualify for the Scholarship too. Like a certain Grade Point Average (I not sure I would limit this, it up to you). As you stated, you can specify it go to a Nursing or Vet degree/major. Also, you can specify the person be willing to work in a certain area of your State for maybe a year before they go somewhere else. There are many options and a College can help with this. Good Luck.

fastweb is the best site. don't go for any sites that ask you to pay money in order to find scholarships.

Prior to becoming a Paramedic, you have to be an EMT-Basic.\nCheck with your local FD to find out when and where these classes can be obtained.  If you're able to join the department (volunteer?) then many times, they will not only will they help you find a class, they'll also pay your way through the class for you.

you have to go to school or some equivalent of paramedic school. many colleges offer a paramedic program that usually takes about 18 months. my husband just got his paramedic about a year ago. it was very hard and takes a lot of dedication and studying. good luck!
