College Grant Available for Research in Retirement and Disability Policy

10/24/2018

0 Comments

 
​
College is expensive and I have previously written about ways that families can help young adults gain a college degree. 
Recently, our friends at the Center for Retirement Research posted a grant opportunity that is intriguing. 
It is a substantial grant for young scholars to pursue research on retirement or disability policy. The grant is called the Sandell* Grant Program. 
 
The Opportunity:
Sandell Grant Program  - Sandell Grants provide the opportunity for junior or non-tenured scholars to pursue research on retirement or disability policy.  The program is open to scholars in all disciplines.
Up to three grants of $45,000 will be awarded for one-year projects.
Proposal guidelines are available online. There is a deadline!
 
There are several methods to fund the college experience.  Applying for Grants is one way to help cover the costs and to gain valuable experience.  The other methods , in general, are:
 
  • Having a part-time job
  • Take credits/courses at a less expensive community college and then transfer to a four-year college
  • Request funds from the college you want to attend (many offer special programs based on family income)
  • Scholarships and Grants
  • Loans
  • Work/study programs
  • Save money by living off campus
  • Trusts established by family members
 
Grandparents (and parents) who are in a good financial position can help by establishing  a College Savings 529 Plan (qualified tuition plans)
 
* From the crr.bc.edu website: “Steven Sandell was a distinguished researcher, leader, and public servant… It was his dream that the centers would help produce a new generation of highly trained social scientists to shape the future direction of policy research…Steven Sandell passed away in 1999, and as a tribute to his lifetime achievements, the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College has named its grant program for junior scholars in his memory.”
