| College can represent a substantial personal investment. The good news is that most schools on Education-For-Careers.com strive to make college affordable, and most are approved for federal Title IV financial aid programs. When you make the decision to enroll, an important part of the process is finding out if you are eligible for one or more federal financial aid programs including the Pell grant, Stafford loan, PLUS loan, or work-study program. | | November 05, 2009 By Thomas A.

| Congratulations—you have decided to continue your education and work towards a brighter future. You know that by earning your degree—a certificate, bachelor’s degree, master’s degree, or doctorate—you’ll be better positioned to move ahead in your career. And according to the U.S. government, the more education that you have, the better chance you have of earning a higher salary and of staying employed. For example, people with a bachelor’s degree earn 60% more per year people with only a high school diploma. People with master’s degrees earn twice as much per year than high school graduates.* | | September 16, 2009 By Thomas A. Hauck | | | | |
