Paying for College
Here are some suggestions for finding funding to pay for college.
Fill out your FAFSA - you may be eligible for federal grants, which do not have to be paid back after you graduate, as well as federal loans, which do have to be paid back.
Apply for scholarships through our Ivy Tech Foundation: Our Foundation has scholarship money that has been donated by local individuals and groups. We even have a scholarship specific to Biology students only! To apply, visit myivy.ivytech.edu, click on billing and financial aid under student, then click apply for scholarship on the right. Filling out one application makes you eligible for all scholarships that match your situation in the Foundation system. Be sure to write your essay to maximize the scholarships you are eligible for!
This website, https://www.mccsc.edu/Page/2423, from Bloomington High School South, has an excellent listing of scholarships and links to other scholarship services. A little work on your part may yield some extra cash for tuition and fees.
