Help! I am in Desperate need of money for college because my parents won't help me. how can I get money?


Question:
my parents make too much money to get any government funding for my college education and searching for scholarships and grants seem to be harder than I thought. Don't even ask about loans because i need a co-signer and they won't sign. I've been struggling with this for 3 long years and I'm seriously ready to jump-start my education!!

Answer:
Try the Pell Grant. That is what I had when I went. I lived in Georgia so I also had the Hope Scholarship. That one is funded by the lottery. Anything that says grant you don't have to pay back. I all else fails, join the Army or the Air Force. I did that too. (Army) All I owe them is 4 yrs of my time.
I hope you found a job. Cuz it woud help alot. For example. I know htis one girl , she goes to work, and her job is paying for her to go to college.

Financial aid just put me through my first semester and left me with money in my pocket. Financial aid gives higher rewards to those with parents with lower incomes. Also, if you are over twenty three (age of independence according to FAFSA) you should get rewarded fairly well too.

Even if none of this applies to you, you still may get rewarded and it's free money.
