subject: Federal Grants And Scholarships Available To Low Income Women - Apply For Obama's New Program [print this page] You may remember that during President Obama's presidential campaign he promised that changes would be coming and now he is definitely making good on those promises. One such change is that working mothers that never even dared to dream that they would be able to return to school and continue their education now have the chance to make that dream a reality.
In one of surely many to come positive changes during the Obama administration, there has been an increase in the Federal Pell Grant by the maximum amount of $10,000.00 per year that is available to single mothers in the low income range. This also works hand in hand with the American Opportunity Tax Credit program that guarantees that the first $4,000.00 of the cost of higher education is now free, which basically paves the way for many of the single working moms to go back to school, or even begin their education, and obtain a degree.
