As unemployment rates rise, many adults are heading back to school to broaden their horizons and potential employment opportunities. Below are some great tips for saving money and avoiding costs when going back to the classroom:

Scholarships: These two sites provide available scholarships with no age limits or restrictions- www.Fastweb.com www.SuperCollege.com

The Government: Individual states are offering a variety of grants to help boost your current at-work sills. Check out these sites for more information-  www.careeronestop.org www.opportunity.gov

Employers: Numerous employers are still offering tuition assistance, especially if it can be documented that  the educational program will increase job performance or increase longevity with that employer. For those who are considering a return to the classroom while still maintaining their current job, this is another viable option.
