If you are a low-income earner, and/or are a single mom who wants to go back to school, but aren’t sure if you can afford it, make sure to check into programs the U.S. Federal government has available to help you through. Their website is GovBenefits.gov. The website explains government loans and grants that may be available to you as well as list programs that help with:

 

  • Childcare
  • Counseling
  • Food
  • Health insurance
  • Housing
  • Utilities

 

Don’t think college is out of reach to you solely on the basis of your income. There are lots of avenues to look into to help finance your college education including grants and scholarships. Your employer may also have tuition reimbursement programs available to help offset your costs. Being a back-to-school mom is within your reach with a little research.
