Student Financial Aid News
+ The South Alabamian publishes the 5 lies of college financial aid
+ A lie is not a myth. A myth is not a lie. They are very different creatures - go look up myth and mythos
+ 1. You can't afford college.
+ 2. You have to be very poor, very smart or very talented to qualify for financial aid.
+ 3. You can get more scholarships by paying someone to search for you. Scholarship scams are everywhere.
+ 4. My child will pay for college, so my salary doesn't matter.
+ It counts on the FAFSA form!
+ 5. You can wait until you get accepted to a college before worrying about financial aid.
+ The National Institutes of Health has issued new guidelines that allow for more than one principal investigator on a grant.
