If you don't qualify based on financial need there are still loans available. Is that as good as a scholarship no but its better than not going to college at all.
The reality is that for todays college student very few get 100% scholarship rides unless they are exceptional academically or athletically. More lilkely than not they are getting a combination of grants, scholarships and loans.
Justin Combs took to Twitter to defend his scholarship.
"Regardless what the circumstances are, I put that work in!!!!" he tweeted on Wednesday. "PERIOD."
"Regardless of what you do in life every1 is gonna have their own opinion," he tweeted. "Stay focused, keep that tunnel vision & never 4get why u started."
Sooooo exactly how does this work because I thought were (as in city data posters) didn't like governemtn fin aid, which is what poor people get.
But we also don't like private scholarships because rich people can get them too?
I know let's just get rid of all scholarships & grants. Then only people who can afford college will go with their own money and everybody will be happy.
This. I wouldn't have even applied. A $54k scholarship is HUGE for most people. Pocket change for Daddy.
Some of us don't even make that in a year.
Applied? You are granted an athletic scholarship- the school decided it- varsity athletes are generally scholarship athletes in football. No written section for this one.
