scholarships and internships

Here are a couple of websites I came across. I can't vouch for them but they seem worth a look.

-For a search of college scholarships check out http://www.fastweb.com">www.fastweb.com
-For internships for students with disabilities in Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, and some fields of Business check out the Entry Point program at http://ehrweb.aaas.org/entrypoint/

I am a parent of a wonderful 28 yr. old married young man who has dyslexia and dysgraphia and has successfully received his 2 yr. degree in Computer Networking. He had a terrific job as a network specialist until Nov. of last yr. when he was let go and is getting very discouraged. He is either over qualified or underqualified. He would love to return to college and get his BS degree but is afraid he can't afford it and support him and his wife (no children). Do you know anyway that I can help him?

I have been off this blog for a long while so missed this comment. But, perhaps a word now might help anyone who stops by hereon. -Specific questions are hard for me since I don't know your town or the types of funding that may be available where you are. It is time consuming but the best places to start hunting are the disability unit of your preferred college and the local branch of your learning disability org. See the links on this blog.
