College money

 
What's your take? (click here)

Oceanlife  

If you need a student loan/grant you must fill out the FAFSA App.

Prospective College Students: Don't fall for all these websites offering all kinds of money. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! The botton line is that you MUST fill out the FAFSA Application in order to get ANY kind of financial Aid/grant from the Federal Govt.
It takes about 25 mins. and you need your tax return to answer a few questions. If you don't have them, then you can "estimate". Grants/loans for the 2010-2011 school year is still open!

Hello Everyone! I am Megan and I am a freshman college student in need of money to pay for the rest of my tuition. I go to a University in Wisconsin, and have had no luck at getting a job. My parents don't have the money to pay for the rest of my tuition, and they don't have the credit to cosign for a loan.  I don't have anybody to go to, and I am getting desperate!  This would be such a relief to me and my family if I got this money.  Next year I won't have to worry about the money because I am eligible for more loans.  I need any money you can give, but in case you wanted/need to know, I need $500 to cover the rest. How can I get the money soon?

Thank you so much!

My wife became profoundly ill with multiple sclerosis and I became her caretaker.  As a consequence, I lost my business and we have gotten extremely behind on bills.  I have decided to go to gradualte school to get my PhD in Molecular Biology, but I had to take out a huge loan to do so.  Where is all this stimulus money for school that I'm hearing about?  Also, we've been renting a single family house, but the owner has become elderly and wants to sell.  Currently our only income is SSDI and SSI and I wonder if there are any programs to help people like us buy the house we've been renting for 16 years.  I'm a little scared that because we're behind on our utilities, potential landlords won't rent to us.  I did go to a HUD first time homebuyers class and received a certificate worth five thousand dollars toward a down payment, but I'm still doubtfull we would qualify for a mortgage.  I know about the 8K mortgage credit, but I'm wondering if it's still available.  My thanks to anyone who has a comment.

help needed for my daughter

My 20 yr old daughter is in desperate need of financial assistance to keep her room she is renting at college, in North Carolina. She has a partial scholarship & student loans to pay tuition, however, I am unable to give her money to pay room & board each month. She is an athelete & during the season, she is not able to work as she has lengthly training & class schedules. She is about to be evicted this week for being 2 months behind in rent. I live 1200 miles away in Florida and cannot help financially or to help her move her belongings. She will receive some student loan money at the end of december, but that will be too late to avoid eviction. We would be able to pay back any assistance that we can receive now by January. She is a Junior this year & is about to quit college because of money issues. I am not a college graduate & desperately want her to continue her education to ensure her a better future. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
