Non-traditional students can get financial aid, just like their younger counterparts. Each institution of higher learning and the vocational school has a financial aid office that can help you sort out the details. Depending on your situation, you might be eligible for student loans, as well as various types of scholarships and grants. These can come from the federal government, your chosen college, or other private sources. In fact, there are even tax benefits that might help defray some of the cost. If you’re a veteran who might be eligible for GI Bill funding, check with the VA. Finally, if you’re working, tuition reimbursement is sometimes available through your employer.
