Are there any financial aids or grants available for non traditional college students such as senior citizens?

We Answered:

Yes absolutely..in fact..do a step further and as a mature student...you CAN often qualify for an entire 4 years tuition , books etc..even money to live on..i have been offered this twice. Ask for a SCHOLARSHIP(S) as well as getting in touch, NOT just with the financial aid department at your chosen place of academai, but find a student who is a GRANT WRITER...you will find that for your age, and living sircumstances yu will qualify for one or more of myriad Scholarships and grants that you do NOT have to pay back. This make sthe school look good..the money IS there..and let no one tell you differently. I fyuo have any more quesions please feel free to write me through email herein the YA format.

Grants available to NY college students!? Help?

We Answered:

There are many grants available to college students but it depends on a lot of things that I cannot help you with unless I knew more details about you, your age, your parents' financial status, your race (there are grants for American Indians, African-Americans...), etc. (http://www.collegescholarships.org/grant…

If living with your step-dad and mom is not something you want to do, you could consider saving money and/or getting a job and moving out on your own. You could even find a roommate who is neat, takes education seriously, and respects your space. OR maybe you can talk with your mother about her husband and see if she could help you in changing the abusive environment that is stressful to you.

Good luck.
