Hello, I'm a student whose parents were Killed in Iraq, I want to know if I can get "aid", and if so: what do I have to do?
================
Null
Did your parents die as result of military service in Iraq?
No, they weren't performing military service.
================
I mean, after that... I don't have the resources to pay college, since I'm homeless... but I really want to go to college. Is there a way I can go to college?
Yes, there's a way. We currently have a plan to prevent homeless to not attending college. The program is called: "Identifying and Supporting Students Experiencing Homelessness from Pre - School to Post - Secondary Ages" I'll send you the link so that you can read more about it.
================
But I'm not a U.S citizen, I just have a permanent resident alien.
In that case you are considered an eligible noncitizen and you'll be able to get federal student aid.
================
But, how would I know if I'm eligible?
Most U.S. citizens or eligible noncitizens are eligible for financial aid for college or career school, you have to understand the criteria the program uses for "staying eligible" as noncitizen, I'll share you a document with all the information.
================
Thanks a lot! Btw, I have a friend whose parents were killed granting military service in Iraq, can he get it too?
Absolutely! He might be eligible for additional Federal Pell Grant funding or for an Iraq Service Grant
