    Scholarships & Financial Aid
    I am a 28 years old male that has been convicted of felonies in the past. I am married now and living my life right. I want to go to college to better my life and set a good example for my two sons. But I can not afford it. Is there any scholarships or funds that can help me to obtain these goals?

    You are eligible for some forms of financial aid and scholarships, depending on your need or talents/abilities, but the form asks about drug convictions/drug felonies, is all I know, so if it's that that may disqualify you.

    I know you can get financial aid with felonies, BUT, they can't be drug convictions... hope that helps! As far as scholarships, just use GOOGLE! Take some time and research it, there's lots of opportunities out there, you just have to find them! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

    I would like to congratulate you on turning your life around. I am trying to contact a person that may know the answer to your question. Could you tell me the city/state you are from?
