Even if you don't get the grant in time for your next semester's tuition, they will still cut you a check when it gets there. You also have to be full time (13+hours) to qualify.
The thing is, I'm the white son of a doctor. I'm afraid that is all they are going to look at. I doubte they are going to care that my dad's total income has dropped every year for the past 5 or 6 years, or that my mother and eldest sister now have health problems.
They really only look at taxeable income.
Yeah. To bad they got sick.
You are probably right. My dad makes about 50k, and even though I've never gotten a dime from him and supported myself since I was 15, I had to wait until I was 25. There's almost no way in hell you'll get a full grant, but you may qualify for something. Only one way to know.Quote:
