Several More Scholarship Resources

I have listed below several scholarship resources.

I have included some resources for getting through these difficult economic times: more resources to help pay necessities mean more money to go to school.

1. AARP Foundation and the AARP

AARP Foundation Back-to-School Financing Guide: A Financial Aid Guide Book for Midlife and Older Women Seeking Education and Training

The AARP Foundation also sponsors several helpful guides, including information about benefits for people 50 and over. The Benefits QuickLink is described this way on the website: "Last year, 90,000 adults in all 50 states used AARP's Benefits QuickLink to find financial help to cover the costs of groceries, utilities, health care, and medications."
