Struggling to finance a college education is frustrating for every student who has ever attempted it. Some students, however, face bigger hurdles. Disabled students often have a hard time paying for college because of medical costs, and may find it hard to qualify for scholarships due to lower grades, despite being very intelligent.

Many students–and their parents–are tempted to give up or do something desperate, such as sell their house. But experts say that isn't necessary.

This article gives some helpful options for disabled students seeking financial aid, such as the HEATH Resource Center's Financial Aid for Students with Disabilities, and disability-specific scholarship searches.

Most definitely a worthwhile read.
