Free Money for College- Paying for School with Grants

By Karen Schweitzer, About.com

Grants are a wonderful way to finance your college education, because unlike loans they do not have to be paid back. Students can receive grants from a variety of sources, including private organizations, educational institutions, professional associations, and federal and state governments.

Grants may be awarded based on a student’s financial need, ethnicity, religious affiliation, record of achievement, association, or special interests.
