2 . How To Apply for Federal Education Grants

Funding your college education can be a hefty expense, but if you are willing to do a little work and research, then you will find that you can get grants through the federal government that will help you pay for school. The key is to be organized about your research and to pay attention to the process of applying for federal education grants.

  1. Gather pertinent information to your grant search. Find out your family's income as well as information about their financial assets. Although your parents may be reluctant to share this information, it could help you out. If you are on your own, then gather last year's tax returns so that you will have this information available. Also gather social security numbers, previous school addresses, and other information in one place to streamline the process.

  2. The first type of grant for which you can apply is the Pell Grant. To apply, you will fill out the Federal Application For Student Aid, which every accredited college and university requires. The Pell Grant is based on economic need, and you will be notified through your university if you quality.

  3. When you fill out the FAFSA, there is a question that asks what type of aid you are willing to consider. Be sure that you put grants because you may be able to get funding automatically under certain circumstances, such as having been a ward of the state.

  4. Go to www.grants.gov. This site is the official website for information about grants for college education, small businesses, and other needs. Register on this site and use the search features to help you determine if you qualify for any federal grants. You may qualify based on a number of criteria, such as your age, sex, race, and other categories of identity. Other grants are available for certain career fields or for people with special circumstances.

3 . 2009 Stimulus Plan

Starting in the 2009 tax year, under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), more parents and students will qualify over the next two years for a tax credit, the American Opportunity Credit, to pay for college expenses.

The American Opportunity Credit is not available on the 2008 returns taxpayers are filing during 2009. The new credit modifies the existing Hope Credit for tax years 2009 and 2010, making the Hope Credit available to a broader range of taxpayers, including many with higher incomes and those who owe no tax. It also adds required course materials to the list of qualifying expenses and allows the credit to be claimed for four post-secondary education years instead of two. Many of those eligible will qualify for the maximum annual credit of $2,500 per student.

The full credit is available to individuals whose modified adjusted gross income is $80,000 or less, or $160,000 or less for married couples filing a joint return. The credit is phased out for taxpayers with incomes above these levels. These income limits are higher than under the existing Hope and Lifetime Learning Credits
