It is easier finding grad school money if you know what subject area you are thinking about entering. Because some area have more money to give. Also you say you are a minority student you really should look into that avenue. Honestly I got a scholarship for being Belgian. My daughter actually gets in now. After I had filled out all of my financial aid info ect I came across this scholarship for people with Belgian Heritage. My mother was from Belgium.
You have to fill out your FAFSA and enter the schools code. Different schools have different funding. Also I would directly come out and ask the school that you are thinking about attending what sort of scholarships and grants do they have. In my state there is a charitable fundation that gives money to students. They base it on need, GPA, field of study and location. I received money from them and my daughter now gets grant money from them.
Also look at the bank that you are a member of. It is amazing that many banks have scholarships and nobody ever knows about them.
Also are you working? Many employers offer some sort of money for college.
Taking grad classes to get a GPA is a great idea. Atleast that why you will have a GPA.
Finding money for school can become a part time job. But there is money out there. You have to look for it.
