Book Description
There are billions of dollars available to Native American undergraduate and graduate students (from accounting to zoology). This money can be used to pay for tuition, fees, books, research projects, creative activities, and other educational expenses. How can you find out about these opportunities? In the past, it was next to impossible! Neither print directories nor online sources covered more than a small portion of the available funding. That's why this new edition of Financial Aid for Native Americans is so important. Here, in just one place, you'll be able to find completely updated information on hundreds of the biggest and best scholarships, fellowships, grants, loans, awards, and other funding opportunities available specifically to support Native American students interested in working on an undergraduate or graduate degree at a public or private college or university. Finally, there's an answer to the #1 question asked by Native American students: "How am I going to pay for my undergraduate or graduate degree?" The focus of Financial Aid for Native Americans is on portable programs aimed at undergraduate and graduate students just like you. Finding money to help you reach your academic goals has never been easier. Using this book, you can tell in seconds if an opportunity is right for you, by scanning the purpose, eligibility, money granted, duration, special features, number awarded, and deadline information. Plus, the book is organized so you can search for aid not only by educational level, but by program title, sponsoring organization, where you live, where the money can be spent, and even deadline. Financial Aid for Native Americans has been called "ground-breaking" (SourcesforStudents.com), a "must-have guide" (Kaplan Test Prep), "extremely useful" (Emmanuel Research Review), and "very valuable" (ARBA).

Book Description
This digest summarizes challenges that American Indian and Alaska Native students face in obtaining adequate postsecondary financial aid and describes general sources of aid for Native students. The number of Native college students is growing rapidly, but obtaining adequate financial aid is the most serious obstacle to completing postsecondary education. Difficulties and barriers related to financial aid include: (1) extreme, sometimes complete, lack of family resources; (2) bureaucratic and paperwork hurdles; (3) unrealistic requirements for student earnings, given the high unemployment in Native communities; (4) unacknowledged costs, such as moving expenses, medical and child care costs, and necessary trips home; and (5) Native distrust of non-Native institutional officials. General categories of student financial aid include grants, scholarships, work-study programs, and loans. The federal Office of Postsecondary Education is the most common source of aid for Native undergraduates, with 34 percent receiving some type of federal aid. Some federal programs are designed specifically for Native students but may stipulate specific fields of study. Most aid given by college financial offices is based on need. Merit scholarships make up less than 5 percent of all aid, but some colleges earmark merit scholarships for minority students. Suggestions are offered on how Native communities can assist students in the financial aid process. Five publications and 10 Internet sites on financial aid are listed. (Contains 13 references.) (SV).
