Here's my situation:
Currently I'm working at Lowe's and they pay for my school in tune of 2,500 a year. It's enough for a semester and a little more. The problem with this is, I have to work 40hrs a week, which I currently do. Mt GPA is only 3.1 because of this. – So most scholarships I know of are out of my range. I'm starting to enter into my upper-level classes and school is going to be a little harder coming up.( I know with more study time I could drastically raise my GPA). On top of that, I'm set to have an internship with the local Congressman in my district this semester, or next. I'm majoring in Economics with a minor in Political Science, if that helps with anything. I currently live on my own, pay my own bills, do my own taxes.. etc. I don't want to accrue any student debt either. Any ideas or scholarships that I could apply for?
