Scholarships Tip

When applying for scholarships in grade 11 and 12 I found I could search other area schools website to find more of the local scholarship awards. Search all the schools in 100 miles to see if they have lists. The more you apply to the more chance you have to be choosen.

529 Plans

Another site that will help you with college money. Savingforcollege.com.

Learn all about 529 Plan. My #1 tip is get a DIRECT PLAN no need to pay the advisor fees when you have this great resource. Plans are available on all states and you may not have to pay state tax on your tuition.

How to get loans for college

Need a student loan? I already did your reseach. Visit this site I found Stafford Federal Student Loan.

I was looking for students loans. I learned Federal student loans offer low interest rates and deferred payments. Graduate Students - borrow up to $20,500 for graduate school with payments deferred until graduation. College Graduates - lower your monthly payments by consolidating your federal loans.

Enjoy!
