    Financial Aid For Convicted Felons
    Convicted Felons have a hard time trying to get funding for anything.

    I am currently in my first year of College I am having to defer payments on half of my tuition, till 2011 or later.

    I have HIGH HONORS, and am looking for a way to obtain grants for education.

    This stuff is expensive, I am currently pursuing an Associates in Science

    Is there a way to obtain grants for me?

    Just the same as everyone else there is no special grant for people who commit crimes. If this was a drug crime, there will be some you can not get.

    You have to work with the aid department of your college. Most will be student loans
