(USGovernment-News.Com, July 16, 2012 ) Gilbert, AZ -- Scholarshipsngrants.com is offering free financial information to students looking to start their college education, and has been launched in order to address the concerns of those who are concerned about how they will pay for their tuition.
The site is designed to provide college students with up-to-the-minute information on all grants and scholarships available in the US. The non-profit site is run and managed by writers and journalists who are devoted to offering the latest information on financial aid to those wishing to embark on a college degree.
Spokesperson for Scholarships ‘N’ Grants, Joanna Marx, stated “as former college students ourselves we understand the financial hardships that attending school can bring."
“We wholeheartedly believe that scholarships and grants provide a way of paying for college without being consumed by debt. We believe everyone has a right to a college education, but navigating the minefield of scholarship and grant information is a massive undertaking, which is why we decided to do it instead."
“People can access information on the latest grants and scholarships through the site, and they can find out how to go about applying for the money. What’s more, the service is completely free of charge.”
The company specializes in providing information on minority scholarships to help those underrepresented groups such as African Americans, Native American, Asians and Hispanics who often have responsibilities outside education and traditionally have lower incomes.
Programmes such as the Gates Millennium Foundation and Accenture Scholarships are aimed specifically at minority groups and can provide financial aid up to $7500 per year, while packages such as La Unidad Latina Foundation Scholarship, the PRIMERO Hispanic Heritage Scholarship and the Jose Marti Scholarship are available for Hispanic students.
However, Scholarships ‘N’ Grants offer advice and guidance on a range of financial packages.
“Not only can we provide information on assistance for minority groups,” the spokesperson continued. “We can also give advice on aid for a variety of other educational activities, such as study abroad scholarships, gender-specific scholarships – even scholarships for no-essay courses or for left-handed people.
“There’s money out there to help people get into, or continue with education, no matter what their background or requirements, and we want to help them access it.”
