Many people don't take junior colleges seriously. Trying to attend school as a mother, however, means seriously looking into junior college options. Personal benefits and academic challenges are part of the package for smart students who want to earn a degree. Chances for financial assistance increase the potential for community colleges to attract quality students. In the past the dominating perception has been that community colleges are for slackers or students who can't get admitted to "real" colleges. There are actually some very enticing benefits to go to these schools, including the lower tuition costs. Mothers who work could especially benefit from the 2-year college system. For moms who want to gain knowledge and degrees, the Obama scholarships for mothers are a strong financial benefit. Earning $5,000 to help pay for school is a very attractive offer. Perhaps the biggest reason many people choose community college is to save money. Moms who apply for a $5,000 grant certainly want to be cost conscious when going to school. Consider that most college and university educations cost tens of thousands of dollars, but that isn't so at junior colleges. At a 2-year...more

Having to take care of their families on their own, single, working mothers have perhaps the toughest job of all. A goal or a wish for many moms that has to be put on hold because of family responsibilities, is higher education. With his new administration, however, President Obama is encouraging moms to make their education a priority. Working mothers are being given a great chance to improve their futures by Obama scholarships. With his Scholarships for Moms program, Obama, while encouraging people of all ages to seek higher education, is targeting working moms in particular. The Scholarships for Moms program will build on the federal government's long-standing offer of Pell grants. Applied for through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, Pell grants are the most commonly applied for forms of aid for students going to college. To encourage more mothers to return to school, the Obama administration is making some changes now. The biggest incentive for the Scholarships for Moms program is in 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...more
