    What Grants are availab.
    Anybody know what grant would be available for a 37 year old male, with only a high school diploma who wants to go back to school to further his education? I have paid for the Grant Kit and it does have the grant listings and all the details you need but there are like 1400 grants to go through and it would take a person forever to go through each one. I'm not trying to be lazy but it's taken me a day so far and I've only gone through about 10. It's just a lot of research and I thought if someone else already knew how to do this, it would be a lot easier.

    Grants for college? Well, the most well known grant is the Federal Financial Aid for students. FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid. You can fill it out online, or go to the financial aid office at the college you're planning on attending, and they can help you get started there. They can also help set up student loans, or other grants, and scholarships, if you are not qualified to receive federal financial aid.

    It is often very easy, have you talked to the actual school you want to go to, If it is a approved school, there should be a aid department that have people to help you find the money to go to school

    I myself was looking for list of grants available. I was checking for more information on Grants and I chance upon this site The Most Up-to-Date Grant Information

    I subscribed to their newsletter and I got regular weekly grant listings, recommendations on grant books, specific instructions for applying on-line. It is very helpful and informative.

    You might want to check it out.
