Re: Grants & Scholarships at Grand Canyon University

GCUJLinde — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 17:28:24 GMT

That's a great question.

The early enrollment scholarship can be combined with the Military and Hero Scholarships, but not the Transfer Scholarship.

All of the other scholarships are combinable.

We will also waive the application fee for students that complete the application and submit the necessary forms in a timely manner.

The Military Tuition discount is good through the completion of their degree program. Alot of military students that have Education Benefits remaining may actually make money while attending school.

The other Scholarships are paid out on a semester basis, for example; the Transfer Scholarship is paid out at $ 500.00 per Semester for four consecutive semesters.

$1500 scholarship for adult females studying online

helenh — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 16:44:20 GMT

A recent study indicates that half of all adults in the U.S. between the ages of 25 and 60 want to further their education. One of the largest obstacles for working adults returning to college is affordability. This problem is compounded by the fact that almost all financial aid, such as loans, has to be repaid.

In an effort to assist part-time students continuing their education, eLearners.com has created a "Where Learning Begins" Scholarship Award in the amount of $1,500 for the pursuit of an online undergraduate or graduate degree.

Hi Christie ...

I have one little angel myself, and all the things it takes to keep her clothed, fed, and happy definitely adds up, so I can relate! I can only imagine what it costs to keep up with two.

Anyway, locating financial assistance for school depends on several factors. For example:

where you live
the type of school you are attending (accredited, non-accredited) and where the school is located
the type of credential you are seeking (degree, certificate, course)
your employer (is tuition assistance an option?)

You mentioned Commonwealth Open University in another post ... is that the school you are hoping to attend? Unfortunately, in the United States, because they are not accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the US Department of Education or CHEA, they are ineligible to participate in Title IV funds .... meaning they can't offer their students access to federal financial aid. You will still have options to take out a private loan ...

One can qualify for Federal Aid and a Pell Grant if a student attends an accredited institution. Check out the eLearners News blog about the proposed changes to the federal Pell Grant program.

The amount of funding you recieve from is determined by:

How much income you earn
The cost of your school's tuition + related fees (books, materials, etc.)
If you are attending at least half-time
