How can I get college tuition money without having to go through financial aid?
Posted by admin
I want to go back to college in Nursing, Social Work or Teaching but I am ineligible for financial aid. Where can I get tuition assistance?
Fill out a FAFSA – even if you don't qualify for aid the government loans have the best interest rates. There are also private lenders like www.edfinancial.com.
And, last but not least, there are scholarships. There are scholarships only available for adult students, ones only available for certain professions (there's a ton for nursing and teaching) and then just general scholarships. Talk to the financial aid department in your school of choice and they can possibly help you find these scholarships. There's also a website www.fastweb.com which lists a whole bunch of scholarships.
I'm also going back to school this fall (nursing) – I hope this helps!

In teaching there are critical shortage areas (usually math, science, special ed and reading) and many states and some federal programs offer tuition reimbursement or loan forgiveness programs if you want to go into teaching. Look for an Acclerated Teaching Credential/Certificate Program. These are designed for working adults and you can train and get the necessary coursework without having to quit your day job.
