Chad Said:

I am a black college student who's major is criminal justice, are there any scholarship for fall 2007?

We Answered:

2.2 wont get you too many options, a 2.5-3.5 has tons of them.

i dont know your details, so i will just post all that i have on loans (gov and private), grants (gov) and scholarships (private).

i know its a lot, but take your time and pick through them, its worth it. apply even for the small ones.

also, spread the word about what you find, it can help others get their schooling as well.

---------------------
try to aim for grants/scholarships more... they are not to be paid back. its confusing sometimes, but just keep applying. Scholarships usually have a 1 or 2 page application, and require an essay. Take your time with the essay, so yours stands out.

every big (and small) company you see (manufacturer, orgs, corps and groups also) all have grants and scholarships they hand out like candy. Walmart, Kmart, Target, Coke, computer companies etc etc etc

heres a link with a HUGE amount of some available. some you will need to copy and paste into a new window. also, fastweb (take the time to fill it in) will search databases and get back to you with a list of scholarships you qualify for.

Also contact all mens, womens associations in your state, they almost always have grants & scholarships. What ever field you are going into, contact the orgs, associations etc for them; Also check with professional organizations related to your career interests, such as the American Bar Association or the American Medical Association. they also always have scholarships. Research and dig, call then write. Its all worth it.

OVER apply; it doesnt hurt to have too many, and the extra funds can help with housing.

Salvador Said:

criminal justice scholarships?

We Answered:

what school? Do some research, your question is too vague.

Dwayne Said:

Does anyone know of any Science of Criminal Justice Grants or Scholarships avalable?

We Answered:

depends on the state you live in. i don't know too much myself, but am learning as i go... i just registered for spring quarter today, and i know my financial aid for the 06-07 school year is going to cover everything only because i live at home, am raising a four month old lil boy, and quit both jobs so i could focus totally on school. my 05-06 financial aid has yet to be filed....had to order transcripts from the irs. check out my profile and email me and i will keep in touch with you, seeing how i am going to be doing a lot of research. like i said though, try looking up grants offered through the state you live in as starters.

Ralph Said:

Looking for a list of scholarships in my area Mt. Desert Maine, specific to a Criminal Justice major.?

We Answered:

One of the best things you could do would be to contact your local Police Station. They will be happy to provide you with any scholarships they can find. I suggest calling to make an appointment with someone in the Department. They may even have one of their own.

Also, contact a member of the State Department of Corrections. With the hightened threats to our nation, I am sure they can help you get into a Criminal Justice course at whatever SMTC became in South Portland. I studied there for a year and they have a really good program. Just make sure you like that major first. I personally hated it, but at least I now understand that police seem like jerks sometimes because that means they will go home alive.

Doris Said:

what are some good schools in chicagoland area with good criminal justice departments? I wanted to go to?

We Answered:

Yeah I know tell me about it! I was looking at Westwood in the DuPage area, and my tuition on the phone was 75K / year. I would rather pay for an Ivy League education for half the cost. Here is a website I found, hopefully it will help to name a few. Scroll down near the bottom for the list. You may have to go individually to the university web sites. Good Luck!
