Free Money 4ur Education

Since I had made the decision to begin attending college atage 22, my mind has expanded into a new world I had no idea I would enter. Bothof my parents objected to the idea of me furthering my education. In theireyes, I was better off working at any job I could get into, until I found arich husband to take care of me. I followed their instructions besides thelatter, which I am too independent of a person to fit into that kind oflifestyle.  

 I worked at variousdead-end jobs for four years and had lost hope for my future. A friendsuggested I go to school so I could work at a job I enjoyed. Money was anissue. However I went down to the financial aid office to see if there were anyprograms I would be applicable for.

In the past 4yrs I have been going to school part time, Ihave re-evaluated what I want to do with my future. I have finally decided onan Accounting/Business degree. I am attending a certificate program forAccounting, and at the beginning of the Fall semester I will be just sixclasses shy of an A.S. in Business.

I am hoping that I will be lucky enough to receive ascholarship so that I could pay for living expenses and hopefully put a dent inthe amount of student loans I now have. It would help me greatly and Iappreciate the consideration.
