New Way to Fund Career Education?  Hot PDF Print E-mail

Good news for those looking for ways to improve their lives and deciding that education is the way to go! The Sallie Mae Fund is donating $50,000 dollars to the Career College Foundation to establish The Sallie Mae Fund Imagine America II Scholarship Program, a program providing $1,000 scholarships to 40 career college students attending a number of institutions.

This scholarship program joins a number of Sallie Mae programs aimed at different student groups. The Sallie Mae Fund is a charitable organization with the mission to increase access to higher education for America’s students by supporting programs and initiatives in an attempt to promote that higher education is accessible and affordable by all.

The Career College Foundation is an organization that provides scholarships, research and information for and about career colleges. Career colleges account for 46 percent of post-secondary institutions, and the need for individuals with career training is growing rapidly.

Susan Corsini, vice chair of The Sallie Mae Fund, notes “We are committed to ensuring that young adults with limited resources can realize the promise of a postsecondary education. By providing scholarships to more students from low-income families, The Sallie Mae Fund is helping to increase access to higher education for a new generation of Americans.”

So don’t let money be a reason to let life hold you back. There may be more scholarship and financial aid opportunities than you think — and they’re growing all the time!
