By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist An individual should not allow a lack of financial resources to interfere with obtaining a college education. There are many ways to secure the necessary funds. If you expect to enter college in September, you should begin plans immediately. You may be surprised to find that there are hundreds of scholarships, grants, loans and payment plans. These offerings come from a variety of sources, such as governments, business foundations, individuals, banks, religious organizations, fraternal groups, and even the college themselves. You wiU find many deadlines for filing applications and taking tests. The necessary information, which you must supply, often takes a good deal of time to collect. There may be delays because your school must sort records for many students. Where should you begin? You must first analyze your financial needs, background and educational aims. You can then narrow the search to those aids which satisfy your purposes Hie tremendous variety of offerings means the need for an organized approach on your part. A visit to the library will provide you with some ideas. Feingold’s “Scholarships, Fellowships and Loans” is an excellent listing. Your local library or school probably has others. Browse through and become familiar with the ma-

terial.

Many of these aids are outright grants. This type of financial aid, scholarship, fellowship does not have to be repaid. The requirements for eligibility are generally: Promise as a student, financial need, good character, and qualities of leadership. Some have specific requirements such as residents in one geographic area or field of study. Others are not limited. You should apply to as many sources as are practical. Search for those with the special demand- which you meet. You may be increasing your changes

if you apply to those with more limitations since there will be fewer candidates who will ha eligible. , There is also a large variety of loans available. Many banks and institutions make loans with low interest charges which do not have to be repaid until after graduation. These possibilities can be checked through your local banks and at the college of your choice. Many colleges have made arrangements that you may apply through their offices. Of course, you should not neglect to consider the many free, or low tuition, colleges and universities. Local, state and federal governments maintain or subsidize these colleges so that citizens may further their education. ..,4 Investigation of all levels of government will uncover ; a variety of possible aids. Contact your local education department and write to the U. S. Office of Education in Washington, D. C. Most high school adviser's maintain up to date files with information about sources of available funds and procedures for applications. Many colleges maintain similar files and listings of part time positions which will not interfere with study.

1.

An individual interested in a college education should not give up because of financial difficulties. If you are truly ambitious you should be able to obtain the needed assistance. At this time, the most important step is to get started.
