If you have some Native American Indian in you, I heard the federal government can pay for your college.?

It's the Bureau of Indian Affairs so, yes, the government, in cooperation with the tribe and the student's school.  The awards are not automatic, though, so you would need to do some leg-work.  According to the BIA, students with at least 1/4 Indian blood are eligible for BIA scholarships.  The Bureau also funds a number of schools and provides funding through the American Indian Graduate Center.  It seems that this one program might not pay for all the student's schooling, but there are other organizations, too, that offer scholarship funding to Native American students (many through http://www.fastweb.com ).\n\nThe site below presents a lot of detailed information about what other sources

the person, government, or company giving the scholarship will most likely have to make a direct payment to the school you will be attending, and you will have to prove that you will be attending that school.   chances are the only way you will ever see a penny of it is if you get a meal plan and eat the money while you go to class...    \nif you were to get payment from someone, government, or company it would be a grant not a scholarship.

Well, the only thing I know about it you can get certain grants and scholarships to school that other people can't get.  But you have to provide proof of your heritage (there is some sort of certificate you have to get).

The monies paid out to the various tribes are based on treaties made with them. All tribes don't get equal amounts of money.

They are just trying to get the tribe to pay their tuition.  In some cases they may just be trying to get a government job.

it would depend on your income.  if you make what they consider a great deal of money the gov't would expect you to chip in towards his educational costs

Do you have a BIA card? You need to call your tribal government. They will be able to tell you what grants are available, but you will have to have proof that you are of a federally recognized tribe.

For the USA, as long as you are not white, there is a lot of financial aid and free rides available to you.  If you are white, maybe you can get loans, but you will have to pay them back.  If you are coming to the US from another country, that helps a lot too.
