College Scholarships/Grants

[admin]

Justin just graduated from High School and will be attending a local Jr. College in the fall and will be transferring to a university in the fall of 2003. Can anyone give me any information about college grants/scholarships for children with BPI. I was told that there was funding available for our children. Any information will be appreciated. Thanks. Marie & Justin

Hi, I too have a child (daughter) who will be attending college in the fall. There is federal program out there and every state is awarded funds to use. We live in NY State and just had our first interview with a counselor. Financial assistance is based on income eligibility. If you want more info please feel free to email me.
