Before you consider paying someone to do the searching for you, keep in mind that there are plenty of fraudulent financial aid search firms. Even the legitimate ones often charge hefty fees for information that's available for free. Ask your school guidance counselors for references. Check the public library and the financial aid offices of the colleges you're considering. Don't forget the Internet.
Several sites provide free information or searches.
Don't be discouraged. You still might be eligible for aid based on financial need, extra-curricular activities and other considerations. High school students in the Jacksonville area still have time to catch one of the free financial aid workshops being conducted by staff from Florida Community College at Jacksonville, Jacksonville University and the University of North Florida. Anyone is welcome to attend, not just students of those schools. Call the guidance office of any host school for more details.
