Obama Will Set Up Scholarships for Single Mothers

Single working mothers have perhaps the toughest job of all

, in having to take care of their families on their own. Higher education is only a wish or a goal that has to be put on hold in order to take care of other responsibilities, for many moms. However, President Obama, together with his new administration, is encouraging moms to make their education a priority. Obama scholarships are giving working mothers a great chance to improve their futures. With his Scholarships for Moms program, Obama, while encouraging people of all ages to seek higher education, is targeting working moms in particular. Building on The Scholarships for Moms program, is the federal government's long-standing offer of Pell grants. Pell grants are the most commonly applied for forms of aid for students going to college, and are applied for through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. To encourage more mothers to return to school, the Obama administration is making some changes now. 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. That amount is increased to $5,000 for mothers who apply to the program. The aim 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. In addition, the administration 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 the worry of school costs or of repaying 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. Both four-year universities as well as smaller community colleges, are covered. You can choose to go to a private school or a public one. For busy moms where staying on campus isn't an option, online course study is offered. The government's Scholarships for Moms program really is a comprehensive attempt to get eager mothers 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, thus they can be 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 is intended to create a brighter future for mothers and their children.
