Meet with your school's financial adviser. The financial adviser assists students in finding funding to pay for their education. To find all the grants you might qualify for, call or visit the school you are interested in attending and make an appointment to meet with a financial adviser to discuss your situation and your needs. The financial adviser will give you grant application forms to fill out and might even assist you in filling them out.
Fill out the applications for all the grants for which you might qualify. Read over each application, and make sure you answer all the questions. Gather the required information for each grant and make copies. Pay attention to any deadlines listed, and make sure to submit the application within the allotted time.
Send in the grant applications. When mailing the applications, make sure to include enough postage so the application won't be returned to you. You might not be able to get a returned application to the grant office by the deadline or cutoff. This can result in you not receiving a grant you otherwise would qualify for.
