A while back we posed the question in this blog – “Should government funding be available to for-profit colleges?” and we got some great feedback!

Paying for school is not easy task. Whether you attend an online school or traditional university, funding your education can be tough. While there seems to be a plethora of scholarships for traditional students, what about the non-traditional ones? Luckily, many online colleges offer their own scholarships. Plus, there are even outside scholarships for online students, you just have to do a little research.

There may be points in your academic career where you need to share large files or access documents on the go. This is where file-sharing and storage applications come in. While online classes do have spaces to upload files, sometimes you need a little extra space. Here are a few noteworthy sites and applications to help students manage their files.

There are many types of degrees you can get online, but perhaps the most surprising one is a degree in Art. Not to be confused with “The Arts”, attending an online art school can be a great way for students to utilize their creativity in a positive and career-enhancing way.

As students patiently await their college acceptance letters, you should continue to think about how to pay for school. Since the college application period is just about over, use this time to apply for scholarships. The March issue of the FAN (Financial Aid Newsletter) has some helpful tips on both scholarships and understanding financial aid awards, including information on an upcoming $10,000 scholarship drawing and how to enter!
