Hello there, I'm a single working mom and am hoping to return to school this fall and get a nursing diploma. I have been looking into getting a pell grant plus some other financial aid opportunities. Someone have some ideas for some quick scholarships as well as grants that i could find?

I believe the Pell Grant automatically calculated based on your annual FAFSA submission.

 

Scholarships are always worth looking into -- I've read that many go uncollected. I believe the standard starting spots are scholarships.com and fastweb.com, but a quick search of Google should turn up some hits. Most require significant paperwork and have lengthy timelines leading up to annual awards, so it's not a fast process, but given the amount of time it takes to get through school it could have some benefit for you later on.
