Going to school and working even part time is difficult but it can be done. I returned to University when I was pregnant with my fifth child. She was born one month into the program and attended classes with me for the first two months. IT IS POSSIBLE and now there are scholarships available to help you from a financial point of view.

Many individuals who think about going back to school stop at the thinking stage. They feel it would be too time consuming and too much trouble to go through all the effort of applying, only be turned down in the end because of past or current situations. This is only negative thinking and is not at all the case. There are 1000s of people, just like the ones reading this article, who get granted scholarships every day, and it wasn’t that difficult at all. Scholarships for the working adult are out there if you will just take the time to search them out.
The first thing you need to do is go to the school you wish to attend and ask directions to the financial aid office. These people are there especially to help you. They will not only give advice as to what grants and scholarships to apply for,  they will supply you with all the forms and paperwork they have at their disposal. Also, if you are having difficult filling out the forms, they will guide you through it. Best of all, since it is their job, they keep fully abreast of all current information about both old and new grants or scholarships that would best suit your particular need.
One thing you might want to know is the difference between grants and scholarships. Unlike scholarships or student loans which you normally have to pay back after exiting your school program, grants are free gift money. Most grants are given to financially impaired or disadvantaged students.
The three most common sources for grants are federal  and state grants, college and university grants, and private sector grants. The Federal Pell Grant is one of the most widely used. Again, your chosen school’s financial aid office will know what is available to you. If you are currently working in a field that would qualify, there are also many special “high needs” grants in areas like nursing and teaching just to name a couple.
If it doesn’t look like you are going to qualify for a grant, don’t worry. There are many scholarships for the working adult available. These loans are deferred until you finish your sought after education tier, so you don’t have to worry about the financial strain of trying to pay them back as you are trying to both work and go to school. Of course getting a free grant would be nice, but in the long run you are all the same a lot better off taking a scholarship since with the higher education there will also be higher wages.
So, stop thinking and start doing! Head for the financial aid office of the school you wish to attend. There ARE scholarships for the working adult available but on campus and online where you can get your degree online and get a study scholarship..
