Financial aid funds
Scholarships & grants:
Outside scholarship assistance is perhaps the largest source of potential
funding for students. Each fund is administered differently, so each
has different criteria and application procedures. The best resources
for exploring these scholarships are bookstores and libraries. There
are also a number of web sites that can assist you in finding outside scholarship
assistance. Here are some more useful ones:
Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, and Scholarships
for Disadvantaged Students are all federal need based funds.
There are a variety of University scholarships; see College
specific financial aid information for information on other funding
available for certain Colleges.
Many states offer need based State Grants to students who are eligible.
If you are an undergraduate student from Tennessee, contact Tennessee
Student Assistance Corporation (TSAC) for an application. If
you are from out of state, contact your state Department of Education.
