Hey, I am not for sure where you could find them but you could check at your local college. I am planning on starting college in the fall but since I am living with my parents I don't qualify for any grants because they said we make to much money. So, if you are still living at home you might not qualify.

I don't think they list them anywhere and you just have to check with the colleges. Or you could talk to your guidance counselor. Mine told me she'd be glad to talk to me about scholarships any time, even since I graduated in June. I went back and talked to her in december, but then i found out I'm pregnant again right after that, so....

The FAFSA is a good grant and you don't have to pay it back. Almost everyone qualifies for loans - those are good too and you don't have to start paying them back until after you graduate. Usually it's like $25 a month until it's paid off. I'm sure there are scholarships and grants out there specifically for us but that takes time (something I don't have) so I just applied for the FAFSA (you probably won't qualify if your parents claimed you last year on their taxes) and that has kept me through so far. I haven't had to apply for any loans. If I quit my job I will though.
