It is impossible without more information to know how much financial aid you will get that is need based from both the federal government and the college itself. It is based on your parents' income along with your income. So, it becomes important to apply for scholarships and grants.\n\nI recommend still applying at FAFSA.ed.gov because it can help you tap into need based financial aid at USC and the federal government.\n\nSecond, apply for state college grants. I have included a link to their website. Also, it can help you into work study employment on campus.\n\nThird, if there are college's that offer merrit scholarships if your grades are kept above a certain point. I could not tell if USC was one of them though.\n\nFourth, search Google.com and Yahoo.com for scholarships based on your college major and religion. Sometimes, you can locate scholarships based on this.\n\nFinally, join several free membership scholarship search websites. Most are updated on a regular basis. Work hard on the essays and have someone proofread them before sending them. Even the smallest scholarship means one less loan to repay. Also, there are some that are not income based scholarships.\n\nGood luck!\n\nThird, work on keeping your grades up because

I would try to avoid loans but see if you can work out an agreement to pay a small amount every pay check you get then go visit the finacial aid office to see if you can get any help there (ask about scholarships too). Then go to fastweb.com fill out a profile and start applying to as many scholarships as you can. If you have too, ask for a personal loan from family or friends and make sure to pay them back at least they won't charge you intrest. Try to work something out where you can pay a little at a time like $30 every pay check. And if you don't work get a job! The school should be able to help you get one just ask.

Yes, there is tons of aid.  Do some research, you start with the school, do internet searches, local businesses in your area have scholarships, the Jobs. Etc. (state employment agency) has a program called Passport that is geared for single women parents.  Apply for all the financial scholarships you can, even if they are only $400 or $500-- get a few of those and they really add up.  Go to the library, they should have a reference book of scholarships.  Where there is a will there is a way!

First, if you're going to solicit funding, you should find a more appropriate venue.\n\nSecond, if you're going to solicit funding in English, you should at least make sure that your sentences are grammatically sound.  Let's start this new education system by having you educate yourself on what is and is not appropriate in Yahoo! answers.\n\nThirdly...no, I cannot help you "financially to our great mission" whatever that means.

How does your aid package compare to your costs?  If that $11,000 is all federal and/or institutional funding and it covers most of your costs, I'd say you made out pretty well. \n\nFederal grant aid can be hard to come by and very often it doesn't cover a student's full costs of attendance.  In fact, it's not uncommon for the same student to be offered a the same federal aid package at both a $30,0000/year school and a $10,000/year school.  As such, even if you were attending a higher-cost private school and were offered that same amount of funding, I'd still consider that "a lot."

Take a look at salary.com. You can get an estimate there.

Now that is a thought to ponder. \n\nI know of a person who borrowed around 55k for college and has to pay around $600/month on student loans. Can this person find a job making enough money to pay this straight out of college? And if they do, how long will it take the person to pay it off? I think that there should be student loan reform programs in place to help kids pay off their loans in a reasonable fashion. Consolidation is not enough.\n\nDepending on the major, the government will cancel portions or entire balances of loan in exchange for working in a particular field for a specified number of years. For example, a teacher can cancel certain loans at a rate of 20% per year having the whole deal canceled in five years as long as they work in an under-served area. Sounds like indentured servitude to me.

Only if your income will cover it.\n\nCoach

Dear friend,\nI'm an undergraduate student in University Of California Davis. I'm an Indian and i did my high school from a school in Haryana. Let me tell you that we do NOT get any federal aid from the FAFSA which US govt. offers to its permanent residents only. Try looking for some online scholarships. I got a 14000 USD scholarship and that's how i'm here and 60000 USD would not be the full price. I advise you to research a lot before reaching a decision. My estimted cost was 64000 USD and its oming out to be 78000 USD now including the travel expense and the summer money. \n\nRegarding colleges with accreditation... I suggest you search at www.collegeboard.com. \n\nBest of luck.\n\nNick (Nikhil Thakur)

lol, ya I want it also.\n\nOf course, since I'm already here, I'm expected to pay for it myself so somebody can come from outside of the country for the aid  <sigh>.... \n\nActually, start contacting different Universities.

You will have to wait till when the deadline is over because how much you get depends on how many people apply and how much the state has.  And it is state, not government.  Because, out of state people get nothing from them.  So, its state.  And whatever the government kicks in for everybody, thats what they kick in.  No complaints because it was free money from the start anyways.  Um, usually you are covered because college students levels dont flunctuate in a year so funding is always about the same as what you got last year.  But, its different in the second year because youre not a clean slate anymore.  Some get good grades and some done.  I paid something every single year I was in college.  Not much thouhg.  Like 2 grand a year for everything.  During my 4th year, I became out of state.  So, instead of 10,500, it was 18,000 for the full package.  As it turns out, the state wanted me to stay because I was becoming a top student, being mentored by a rhodes scholar nominee and all.  So, I paid nothing.  And I got 91 dollars back.

Mine is about the same and I receive 2700.00 per semester. You may want to check and see if there are any Social services that will help single parents with education. Most states have these.

Not many people are deny for financial aid. You should be ok, the problem that many people have with getting financial aid is when they or their parents have a lot of savings in the bank. When my friends and I were going through filling out FAFSA forms, my friend's parents didn't make a lot of money but they had no mortgage just every day bills and they didn't spend a lot so it went into their savings one of my friends parents had over $85,000 in their savings. She didn't get any financial aid can you understand why? $85,000 11 years paid for college 2 times over.
