Focus On Education

Special education scholarships?

My girlfriend wants to be a special ed teacher, and hopes to pursue a Masters degree in the field. But she is more or less broke, and can’t afford to pay for grad school- She just barely makes rent!- is there much financial aid out there for prospective special ed teachers? What’s the best resource guide that lists financial aid in the field?

There is aid out there for people who agree to work in “disadvantaged” areas as teachers. This site has more info. Or search “teacher grants”.
