name the best ways to get funding for college….besides scholarships…???financial aid and??what else any good investment u can make

Back in the 80’s I purhcased EE savings bonds. The "financial experts" claimed these were bad investments, so I quit getting them. But I also stopped saving (duh). Lo and behold those savings bonds that I purhcased (45 for $50) are now worth over $5,000(!) and will help get my son through his final year of college (yay!). Of course, it’s 20 years later but still… it was a grat investment.

Dave Ramsey’s book, The Total Money Makeover Workbook, will motivate you to immediate action so you can:

* Design a surefire plan for paying off all debt
* Set up an emergency fund

I know I am eligible for Dependents’ Educational Assistance through the Department of Veterans Affairs but can I receive Pell Grants at the same simultaneously.

In other words is it an "either/or" type thing with Pell Grants and Dependents’ Educational Assistance like i can only get one or the other? Can i get both?

Again, if you have a dependent of your own… since you said you have an 8 month old son, I doubt you are considered a dependent of your Dad for his vet benefits. But yes, you can get funding from a Pell grant and from many sources. Including scholarships you apply for and receive.

Are there any grants, scholarships,etc…based on your life style? I’m a mother of 3….have no income….and i am single….is there any program for people like this? Sorry I can’t figure out how to word my question…Thanks

Given your situation, you are a prime candidate for a pell grant. You will most definitely receive one if you apply. The max amount per year now is $5350(? – something like that).

Follow the link below and fill out your info. You will need last years tax return. You will also have to pick a school to attend and the expected number of hours you will be taking.

Fastweb ( posted above) is a good resource for scholarships.

3 kids, single, it will take alot of work but it will be for the better.
