How do I get funding for college as a felon

Hi, skkindred!

Has someone told you that you aren't going to be able to get a scholarship or financial aid of some kind because you have a felony on your record? There most likely will be some kind of financial aid available, depending on your grades and income of yourself and/or parents, through whatever college it is to which you apply. Much of that information might be readily available online on the website of the particular institution.

I have heard something about the possibility of grants and scholarships being available through FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) for those who have been convicted of a felony. However, it would depend on what the conviction was for and an applicant's compliance with certain stipulations in order to be eligible. For more information, please visit FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid (http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/faq003.htm)

Once a person has done their time been on probation or parole, basically paid their debt to society, then they are free to apply for monies just like anyone else does in the form of loans or financial aid from educational institutions, banks, municipalities and others.

But, like I said above earlier, in order to be eligible for grants or scholarships from certain programs that are designed to help those who have been convicted of a felony, then it might depend on what the conviction was for and that certain conditions must be met.

Thanks!

I received a few different types of grants through the state and federal government. I end up with about $1500 a term after the cost of books and tuition. With an unemployment check of $664 monthly I can survive while attending school.
I have been attending college long before I was off probation so that doesn't eliminate your chances. I am pretty certain that you can have the same opportunities to apply for the same scholarships as everyone else as long as you meet the academic standards.

Colleges have an open door policy. As long as you don't have a drug charge you can go to college.
