I have been reading everyones stories of need and decided to post my own. I am in the same sitution as many others. Single parent with two choldren to put through college. I make too much money to be considered 'low' income but not enough to have any extra. All I make goes to existing. That's it.
So I have spent hours looking for help with funding college for my daughters. I don't want my girls to graduate owing tens of thousands of dollars. I don't think any kids should have to do that. Anyway. if anyone has any tips on where to find these elusive scholarships or grants, please let me know.
I just want the best for my kids and I don't think an education should be based on what a parent earns. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
