Hi guys, so I need some help! So I’m a junior right now in HS meaning I need to figure out what I’m doing after HS asap! My dad wants me to join the Air Force because of the benefits and it pays for college but I don’t want to join! I do also know college will be expensive but I really do not want to join the military. Are there any ways to get a paid tuition besides joining the military? I have alright grades too a 2.9 gpa which is more on the lower side so I can’t get any scholarships. Are there any ways to earn scholarships that don’t have to do with academics? I’ve been searching on scholarship websites but there is a very low chance to win them on the websites. Please anyone know what I should do? Thank you in advance!
Have you taken the SAT or ACT yet? Your GPA isn’t terrific…but maybe with a very high standardized test score, you could garner some merit aid.
Can you get terrific grades this year…your junior year?
Do you live near a community college?
You may qualify for federal and state grants if your family income in low. Try Fafsa forcaster:
I’ll be taking the SAT this year, trying to get a good score on that! This year I am striving to get better grades to boost my GPA higher. Also I do live near a community college.
Are you taking the PSAT in October?
