There are millions of dollars in financial aid available to students for college; however, only about two-thirds of full-time undergraduate college students receive some type of financial aid in the form of grants, scholarships, loans, or work-study.

Education is Freedom scholars were awarded $64 million in scholarships during the 2013-2014 school year. Education is Freedom has over a decade of experience helping students successfully navigate the college financial aid landscape.
