Obama Is Planning Scholarships For Single Mothers

Single working mothers have probably the hardest job of all

, having to take care of their families all by themselves. For many moms, a wish or a goal that has to be put on hold in order to take care of other responsibilities, is higher education. President Obama, together with his new administration, is, however, encouraging moms to make their education a priority. Obama scholarships are giving working mothers a great chance to improve their futures.

Obama is urging working moms in particular to participate in his Scholarships for Moms program, whilst still encouraging people of all ages to seek higher education. Building on The Scholarships for Moms program, is the long-standing offer of Pell grants by the federal government. The most commonly applied for forms of aid for students going to college are Pell grants, applied for through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. The Obama administration, to encourage more mothers to return to school, is now making some changes.

For the Scholarships for Moms program, the biggest incentive is with the amount of money being offered. The maximum amount awarded through Pell grants is about $4,000 per student, but that amount is increased to $5,000 for mothers who apply to the program. The goal of these grants is to allow working moms to return to school and earn a degree that allows them to better provide for their families now and in the future. The administration also hopes that equipping mothers to earn more money as working professionals will also be a stimulus to the economy. Moms can receive an education without worrying about the costs of school or having to pay back money for a loan.

In addition, a great incentive for moms considering this program is that it applies to enrollment in nearly any type of higher education institution. As well as smaller community colleges, four-year universities are covered as well. You can choose either a public school or a private one. If staying on campus isn't an option, busy moms can opt to study through online courses. Basically the government's Scholarships for Moms program is a comprehensive attempt to get mothers who are keen back into the classroom.

With the Obama scholarship, the worry of returning to school is removed. In almost any area of interest working moms can earn a degree, so that they are fully equipped to provide for their families. An unfulfilled wish or an unobtainable goal no longer has to be higher education. The Scholarships for Moms program has been designed to help create a brighter future for mothers and their children.
