Goosey asked:


I recently discovered that I am not eligable for financial aid, basically because my parents make “too much” money a year and last year i had a job that paid “too much to require assistance” (even though that job was last year and i only earned enough there to pay for one year of schooling). I do have a job and my parents are willing to help, but i still, I am only earning minimum wage and my parents have 4 other kids to support. I’m not asking for handouts but does anyone know of companies or organizations who offer scholorships or grants to those students who are not eligble to file a FAFSA? I really would like students loans to be a last resort going into grad school.
PS. I have talked with a school counseler and she said that all grants and scholorships (even work study) offered through the school requires me to be eligable for FAFSA (federal student aid) which I am not. My parents are willing to help me but there is only so much they can do. No matter what the government thinks, we are not rich.

jeremy r asked:


A relative wants to put life insurance benefits from a deceased family member in my kids’ names. I’m worried that whatever amount it might be, it will interfere with their ability to receive financial aid for college later, which they certainly will need. Should I ask him to put it in my husbands’ and my names?
