Subscribe Feed (RSS)My husband is going to school 2 days a week and he works 3 days a week making 12hr, but it is constuction work and sometimes he will not have work due to weather etc.. If he does work a full week, his paycheck is about $250. That is supporting a family of four. We are living at our church and not paying rent, but we have other bills that eat all of that and more over. He has a pell grant and will also get a scholarship for academics. Next semester, he will be going to school 5 days a week for Paramedic, so he will not be able to work. Does anyone know of any grants or scholarships that he could qualify for since he has a family and won’t be able to work to get his degree?

He could look into loans, he could look into getting a job with more hours, you could look into working while he’s not in school, even something like babysitting.
