I wrote a post here about the Obama back to school grants for moms that so many people are looking for. My conclusion was that there is nothing new that is specially set aside for school grants from this new President.
He has raised the Pell grants cover by about a $1000 and there are some tax benefits too that you can get for part of the tuition cost. Other than that, there is nothing really specific or new from Obama regarding new grants or new loans.
If you are looking for some Obama moms back to school grants, there is a free drawing every month for a $10,000 scholarship. It is totally free to enter and all you have to do is sign up for it. They have additional drawings every month and actually you don't have to be a mom to win. All you have to be is 18 or older and it is 100% free to sign up - Scholarships 4 Moms.
Any moms return to school program sounds great but my research shows there isn't any such specific program. (if I am wrong please leave a comment and let me know) Getting a job right now is hard so it is a good time to return to college (if you can afford it) and finish your degree. If you are able to do that, by the time the economy picks up, you will be better equipped to get a job with your completed education. You might be able to use an Obama grant or loan to go back to school but it seems there are no such things, at least at the present time.

About Me
Hi there. I am just a concerned citizen who is upset at the bad financial position that so many people are in. We are all just trying to get ahead and it is so difficult with prices so high and jobs being lost. College tuition keeps going up and people need a way to make more money, save more money, and get affordable grants and loans. If our government would just stop wasting money on the wars it is fighting and get down to business, we might have a chance.
