The reason I ask is there seems to be a lot of cuts taking place. Which programs do you see as solid? Meaning programs that are sure to be around by the time I ready to graduate?

Good evening Kareem! I understand that this is an uncertain time but do not fret. There are many scholarships and programs that are still secure. Here are some:
Scholarships on scholarship search engines- There are many scholarship search engines that offer thousands of scholarship opportunities that are not reliant on federal funding. Check out the Scholarships/Grants page of our website for some good scholarship search engines.
School-specific financial aid policies- Many universities offer their own financial aid awards based on either merit or financial need. This often ranges from half to full coverage of your tuition.
The CSS Profile- Many universities require the completion of the CSS profile, an application that can help you receive non-federal financial aid. Filing out this application can help you secure financial aid that is protected from government encroachment.
State-specific financial aid- There are many states that offer partial to full tuition coverage to students who claim residency in their state and are going to attend an in-state school. This is usually based on your GPA, SAT/ACT scores, and/or community service hours. I highly recommend researching whether or not your state has such financial aid opportunities.
I hope that these resources will prove helpful to you. I am confident that you will be very successful in applying for scholarships. Continue to stay encouraged! I have faith in you!
