I am 66 years old and a felon. I want to take a course online which is going to cost about 4500.00. My husband is disabled and I can not afford this amount. Is there any grants for Low income Seniors, with a felony, willing to study and get a job.
I am getting desperate

Whatever school our applying to probably has a financial aid office that would be able to help you. I don't know too much about online schools, but if you were to enroll in community college they would definatley have a financial aid office that would be able to help you.

There are schools online that offer fa also grants. A good grant is pell also if u live in ny tap is also another good grant I would pick a school first then ask about financial aid and grants.

If this is the US, if it is an approved School by the Dept of Education, they will qualify for grants and loans like ay college.

If it is not, then it may not be an accredited school and you should look closely at it.

All you can do is apply for the grants though the finicial aid,
Drug convictions do disqualify you for many of the grants
