Scholarships

Sometimes a college will directly award money and assistance to cover its own costs. These are often based on financial need or academic achievement. However, financial aid opportunities targeted just for students with disabilities also exist at a number of colleges.

In addition, private and local organizations, as well as businesses, award money to ensure that students with disabilities are able to achieve their college goals. For instance, the Rotary Club has given Incentive Awards to students with disabilities attending a college.
