I am an out of state student attending Penn State University. I have been informed that my scholarship may be revoked due to lack of funding. I am freaking out because I come from a poor family consisting of a terminally ill mother and a father with a history of brain tumors, both parents are on disability and are far from eligable to co-sign for private loans to compliment my FAFSA and I have no one else to help me. I worked so hard to get into this school and I am a 3 year Army veteran trying to become and Army Officer pending my graduation. I was wondering if anyone had any information regarding scholarships, and other options to help my situation. Any amount no matter how small will help. I have battled unfortunate circumstances all my life and if my mother dies soon I may have to raise my 5 year old brother on my own so I am doing my best to get school and everything else knocked out so I can get a job to be financially stable to handle the situation properly. I hate to put my self out like such but I have no options. Thanks in advance for the help and God Bless.
