Subject: Going back to college...any scholarship/grant ideas?
Written By: quirky_cat_girl on 07/25/05 at 8:57 pm
Hey guys!
I am planning on going back to college real soon to finish my degree. I have about 75 credits already accumulated, so I would only have about 2 years to go. I was wondering if any of you have gone back to college as an adult and if so, were there any special scholarships/grants that you took advantage of. I am majoring in photography and minoring in business. Any suggestions/comments/or input would be greatly appreciated!
Erin :)

I was VERY lucky. When I went back, the VA paid for EVERYTHING-tuition, books, supplies, and even gave me a check every month I was in school. I tried to get them to continue for grad school but they wouldn't do it. :\'( For grad school, I had use my ace-in-the-hole, my grandmother.
I'm sure there are many scholarships out there-the question is finding them. I'm sure if you do a google search, you can find some that you qualify for. Keep us informed how the search goes.
