Unfortunately, if you want the tassel and can't afford to pay the tuition yourself, you have do put up with the hassle.  There are no shortcuts.  If it will make you feel better, remember that everyone that needs a scholarship goes through the same process.  Good luck in college!

Fill out the FAFSA online! They use tax return information from the previous year, and if you were a single mother, you should qualify for at least a Pell Grant, if you weren't making much money. On the FAFSA, you can choose if you're interested in just grants, loans, or both. The FAFSA is free. The worst they can say is "no." \n\nAlso, many employers nowadays offer tuition reimbursement. It may not be publicized, but should always be asked. If you have a college or university near you, many times they will pay your full tuition or at least part if you work for them.\n\nAnd lastly, check websites of the universities/colleges you're interested in. Many times you can find links to scholarship applications. There are many scholarships out there for non-traditional students. Also try the website: www.fastweb.org. There are many links to national scholarships.

Have you started by talking to the financial aid office at the college you're interested in?  They'll determine your eligibility for many different kinds of aid--both public and private, subsidized and unsubsidized.  True, you may end up having to take out a private loan (or a combination of things--loans, work-study, etc.)--but they may be able to point you in a better direction than if you try to do it on your own.  Remember: if you don't go there, they don't get the money--so it's in their (the Financial Aid dept.) interest to find a way to get you what you need.  \n\nApologies if you've already gone this route.  Anyway, good luck.

The first thing to do is to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) available from http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/,\n\nThere are a number of funding sources for students of limited means. Most however require information from the FAFSA, which can be transmitted to them electronically once you have completged the FAFSA.  For the students with the most limited finances grants, which don't have to be paid back are often available.  Then need based scholarships that do not require repayment are the next option.  \n\nFollowing those options are non-need based scholarships and there are hundreds of thousands of those available to all sorts of different students from football players, to clarinet players, to left handed students and red haired students.  Fastweb.com as someone else mentioned is a good place to look for those.\n\nThere are also loans based on need which do not take into account a student's credit.  These loans are guaranteed by the federal government and must be paid back.   There are several different loan programs available. \n\nTalk to your guidance counselor at high school, as well as the financial aid professionals at the colleges you plan to attend.  I have always heard that if a college wants a student and the student wants the college they will find a way to work it out!\n\nGood luck!

The best thing is to apply several places for money for college. All these sources are free to use and apply for each source. Overall, there are seven sources to locate scholarships and college financial help in paying the tuition bills.\n\nFirst, apply in January or early February at FAFSA.ed.gov for the upcoming fall semester or now for the Spring 2007 semester. It will help you tap into need based financial assistance with the federal government and the college itself.\n\nSecond, search via Google.com or Yahoo.com for your state's college grants because some states have a website devoted to it. If your state is not one of them, search your state government's website to locate it. This is also need based. This can be pretty quick to hear back from them after you apply.\n\nThird, if you are a current high school student, your high school guidance office has a list of local scholarships that you can apply for consideration.\n\nFourth, the college financial aid office and website have a list of private scholarships available from companies and organizations. Sometimes, your college major's information page might have a list of scholarships, too. This will take time though to hear back once you apply for consideration.\n\nFifth, search Google.com and Yahoo.com for scholarships based on your college major, ethnicity, and religion. This will take time though to hear back once you apply for consideration.\n\nSixth, go to the local library and look at the scholarship book. There are scholarships out there that are not listed on the web. This will take time though to hear back once you apply for consideration.\n\nFinally, join several free membership scholarship search websites. Some scholarships might be listed on one but not another source. Most are updated on a regular basis. All offer a customized search based on the information you put into them. This will take time though to hear back once you apply for consideration.\n\nGood luck!

Go to the college you want to enter. The admissions office will have lists of scholarships you can apply for. Most colleges have many scholarships available only at that college, and so aren't advertised anywhere else. Good luck!

Looks like you can get on the computer. If you want to go to college, you just have to find that college's website (use any of the search websites online) and: download the application, submit an email or request for them to send you an application, or get their phone number and call.\n\nAbout the money: colleges and US federal government offers scholarships and financial aid. Once you decided on a college, ask them about these aids. They can direct you to the right people and they can guide you on what forms to complete and if you are eligible.\n\nBest wishes.

Not only your FAFSA, but there are thousands of scholarships for the taken.  All you need is a little www.college-scholarships.com , www.scholarships.com , www.findtuition.com , www.collegescholarships.com\n\nDO NOT sign in for scholarships that are "guaranteed" or that ask for money.  They are many funny scholarships out there.\n\nForgot to mention the work/study program on the college of your choice.

check out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid...they have lots of porgrams:  outright scholarships (no payback required), loans (which you repay after you graduate) and work-study - where you get a job on the campus and get the money you make from that applied toward your college expenses.\n\nhttp://www.fafsa.ed.gov

Yes!! As long as you fulfill the requirements for the scholarship, apply for it. It's free money. Even if you don't fulfill ALL of the requirements, apply anyways. \nJust because you are in college already does not mean that you will no longer apply for scholarships. A scholarship is there to help people afford college.

You must go to college first.\n\nNo they do not supply you with them.
