Hello again Soup.Campbell! I understand where you are comming from. Federal financial aid has become very unclear and unreliable within these past months. You are completely justified to question plans for higher education. College is not cheap and can be very burdensome throughout one's life. However, in addition to scholarships, there are many other forms of financial aid that are currently available to you. Here are some:
CSS Profile: College Board's CSS Profile is very helpful in helping people receive non-federal institutional aid (Scholarships, university specific scholarships and grants, etc).
State Tuition Assistance: Many U.S. states offer in-state tuition assistance which can cover sometimes 75% to 100% of college expenses. However, this is only for residents. If your state has this form of assistance, you may be eligible for tuition assistance if you attend an in-state university. So, please check eligibility requirements if you are interested in this form of aid.
University-specific financial aid policies: Many universities offer financial aid policies that are willing to provide full tuition coverage to students who have an income within a certain margin. Please check your desired universities' financial aid policies to see if they offer full tuition coverage based on your income.
It is unacceptable that the government has put many students like yourself financially at risk of being unable to pay for college. Hence, we must look for other ways to finance our endeavors—even if it means leaving the government in the dust. Do not let the unjust actions of the government determine your future! You have a bright future ahead of you!✊🏾
