Financial Aid for Grad School
 
I'm curious how is everybody paying for Grad School. I was not aware that you could not use a Pell Grant for Grad School. I was trying not to add to much on my already HIGH student loans. Does anyone have anygood websites for finding out about Graduate Financial Aid?

I recieve a SHITLOAD of money from financial aid....waaaaay more than I did in undergrad. Go and talk to the financial aid dept at school and they'll tell you what to do.

Your financial aid office should be setting up a loan package for you - also, if the school really wants you, they'll offer grants.

can graduate students get anything else besides loans from the government?

I'm assuming you AREN'T in engineering/sciences, because typically in those programs tuition is waived and you get a stipend in addition.

Tell your school you need more money. If they want you, they'll find the money.

No, I'm in Counselor Education. I was just reading on one of the colleges websites and it said that Pell Grants were only for undergrad's. I'm trying to get as much free money as I can.

I figure to be working to pay off my degree until probably around 2020.
