People say that so many scholarships go UN awarded but ive applied to soooo many! and i get letters back saying that i wasnt chosen! I worked so harddd, but i can't get any. And it serioulsy hurts to see that my friendz get this money FREE from the government and i dont. It is just not fair :-(. I have even done over 100 plus hours of volunteering in the Emergency Room at the hospital, and i applied for that scholarship...and i STILL didn't get any! Is there ANYTHING i can dooo to get money?? Just cuz fafsa doesnt give me any..it doesnt mean i dont need it!!

  • Answer:

    Your lucky to get loans. Some don't have anything. Your right about not working - why kill yourself and get bad grades? Get great grades an then you can get academic scholoships nad grants. join professional organizations for nurses and go for those grants. Pledge to teach after and you can get all kinds. Open your mind. When you graduate with 100K of debt, you can marry a doctor and wape it out in 5 years easy. You'll be living large and hardly notice the pinch. Rent out your garage or room. when your not there those 12 hrs to a grad student. Reduce the costs and work less. You have a lot to work with - just depends on how bad you want it. or you can keep waiting... Good luck!

keep trying, if they dont then oh well....just get a loan one that doesn't require you to pay untill you graduate otherwise just get a different job ne that doesn't you to work 12hour shifts and that pays better......

I had little scholarship money either and I needed it also. The government does not owe you a free handout. You are entitled to a free and public education through 12th grade. Life is hard work. BUT, some scholarships are based on your track record once you are in a program. Many people go through college with student loans and successfully pay them back because they then qualify for a higher paying job. I did. Nursing is a difficult profession. So is teaching. I went through undergrad school and graduate school with primarily student loans. I have been searching for scholarship money for a Ph.D. program I would like to take. When the time is right that I start the program, I will start the program with whatever assistance I can get--a student loan is a type of assistance. I do understand your frustration--truly I do--both for schooling and for starting a business. Hang in there! The volunteer work you have done may pay off with a scholarship yet. In the meantime, work for pay now and budget your money as best you can. Remember that you have a grace period on student loans until a few months after you graduate through your program in order to give you time to find employment in the higher paying position you will be qualified for. Best wishes!
