School Grants?

[Mark33180]

I was wondering if anyone else in the US has looked up grants or financial aid for people with crohn's and if there are any special ones that we could apply for, Going back to school and anything would help me out... ALOT.... So if you have anything that can point me in a good direction let me know.

Something I just saw is...http://www.eduloaninfo.com/educationloans-articles/education-special-grants.htm

Haven't used anything personally, but has some info on where to look.

Also http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ may also have some information or while filling it out may make you eligible for something also, can't remember...

Good luck Mark!

There's a scholarship for people with Crohn's worth $10,000. The company that sponsors it is UCB. I applied earlier this year and didn't get it, but I'm definitely applying again next year!

And that's the only one I've ever found that's specifically for Crohn's, although there are some other scholarships for people with ostomies.
