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.

"How To Pay For Your Online Education"

Unless you have a rich uncle, paying for your education is going to require careful thought and a lot of planning. Very few students can afford to write a check for the full amount of tuition.

Sixty-three percent of all undergraduates receive some type of financial aid, according to a 2003-2004 report by the National Center for Education Statistics.

Federal loans, private loans, grants, scholarships, military tuition assistance and employer tuition assistance are all possible forms of financial aid to pay for your online degree.

A growing number of people entering, or returning, to school are adult or non-traditional students. The challenges are different 18 years after high school graduation. By then there is a lot more to consider than cramming for midterms, nursing a hangover, or dealing with a sloppy roommate. And flinging burgers or delivering pizzas isn't likely to bridge the gap between the amount of money you have and what you owe. Older students tend to have fulltime jobs, families, household expenses and consumer debt. The question of how to pay for your education is timeless. There are really only three answers. You can have someone else pay, pay for it yourself, or borrow the money.
