Unfortunately, most of the families that live under the poverty line today are
those who are headed by a single mother. Often, the education that they once
were eager to pursue, has had to take the back burner, while they settle for a
low paying job because that was all the qualifications that they had. This
doesn't have to be anymore. Now, because of President Obama's dedication to
education funding, there is money set aside in the stimulus package for single
mothers to receive scholarships to get a higher education.
If you are a
single mother who has only dreamed of walking across the stage and receiving
your college diploma, you don't have to dream any longer. These are the simple
steps you need to take:
* Decide on a college or university that has the
program you would like to study.
* Make an appointment with the financial aid
office.
* Take your income documents and tax statements
* Fill out a
FAFSA, Free Application for Federal Student Aid
* Fill out any other forms
for private grants and scholarships
* Receive you check and start
school.
It really is that simple. The scholarship you may receive is
around $9,000.00 per year. If you receive other monies, then it will simply add
to the money you have for tuition, books and whatever living expenses that you
have while you are in school. You may be able to cut your hours or quit work
altogether so that you can devote your time to achieving the best grades
possible.
The jobs of the future will belong to those with the proper
training. And, those are the jobs and professions that will pay you a high
enough wage to provide for your family. Don't wait any longer; you deserve to do
this for yourself.
