Is there any for Asian women? We are a minority group too. Why are there only grants for African American and Hispanic women? Is there any for Asian women? We are a minority group too.

Let me explain my situation and myself a bit. I am 47 years old and have managed to work and save over the last many years, until I achieved a bachelors in Nursing and masters degree in Nursing from IU. I asked for no help-I did it myself. Unfortunately this took many years and I am now 47. I have been a Nurse Practitioner in the field of Nephrology for about 5 years now and love what I do; I am wanting in the worst of ways to go on to pursue a doctorate. Medical school at my age is quite dangerous when looking at the kind of expenses ahead of me. It is important to know I will succeed, and I truly believe I will. I have the verbal support from doctors I presently work with to pursue my doctorate. I also have the grades I need to get in - an undergraduate GPA of 3.8 and a Masters GPA of 3.5 from IU University. I have done well in my field. Unfortunately at 47 I am fearful of taking on large loans as medical school incurs. I have saved everything I could for the past five years since getting my NP license to help me get through my doctorate, but I do not think I have enough yet. -Unfortuanately I do not believe that I could work either - Medical school like my masters and licensure as an NP will require all my energies. I have put myself through everyting else living on my savings not asking for help - but now I must ask for any assistance that I can. I would not ask for help even now except for the factors I mention above (my age with taking on such large loans). If you could direct me to the the most likely programs that I could apply to, I am going to ask for their assistance. I know I am wanting to do studies in a field that is much needed (primary care MD)- and so will help meet a growing need in our society. I believe also that I have proven I will be a success and that I will be responsible with any help that I receive. If I am given help to get through my doctorate I will return the favor and give significant money to help others as well. Thankyou for your help in advance, Beth Rose, MSN, NP-C Hello,

I am not earning enough money since the construction industry tilted in the economy. I was an interior designer. I would love to go to school to learn the Esthetician course. The only school in my town is private and it does not have financial aid. Owner says they don't want the govt telling them how to run a school. So if anyone knows info on how to get money for school for this course i appreciate your time. Thanks Mary F. Hi I am a single Mom with a daughter in college full time.

I lost my job back in 2009 and when I couldn't find work, I decided to go back to school. I have been relying on loans and the Pel Grant but I would like to find some scholarships and grants to help supplement my educational expenses. Does anyone have any ideas or good websites that I can go to? I can never tell what sites are good and what sites are scams. Any help would be appreciated. You can email me at jmeats77@gmail.com.
