I am the mother of a 20-year-old bipolar son who is pursuing an engineering degree in aerospace design.  We are in desperate need of scholarship money to send him to Rose-Hulman next fall.  The approximate cost is $40,000 per year!  I am a single mother and was unfortunately unemployed for a year until just recently.  Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

hi, i also have bipolar disorder. but i'm not bitching, so that means i deserve a god damn scholorship. listen, my life isn't all it's cracked up to be. all i wanted to do was live a normal life without anyone dying, and me ending up in hospitals every other month. i've been through a lot in my life. i know everyone says that but i really mean it. 

 

i'm not doing this for my own good. i'm doing it because i'm sick of everyone saying their lives sucks, and blaming it on bipolar disorder. your life sucks because you don't smile enough. i still smile and i have a dead brother, 2 stepdads, 4 sisters, and a fucking husband! i've been kicked out of 3 high schools, and almost didn't graduate. i finally did from a school called sage day.

but that's besides the point. now my problem is i can't get into a good college. i'm in college now, but i fucked up bad last semster and sent my GPA to a .928 from a 2.7 yeah don't ask how it can get that low, but it can. not only can i not get into a good college. i can't even pay for the one i'm in now. 

so listen bitches, stop complaining about your life, and give me a scholorship so i can write a book and change the world.

i am 18 and i am also bipolar.  i am good at acting and music, but i had a hard time in everythings else.  i would understand it, but it still didn't work out (i am sure u all understand what i am saying).  so i am waaay too poor to pay for college all by myself :P  and any help WHATSOEVER would be incredibly appreciated!

For the people looking for educational help for those with bipolar , check under this link and scroll down for the educational/learning help links. This link should have information that may be of help. Holly (sl or soulight) The third link might help the most. It is for the disability rights education and defense fund.

Nancy, I am also in pursuit of scholarship money for a bipolar child. My girl is 17 and is a very talented high functioning musician, who has some challenges in school with the logistics of it, but not the learning. The schools don't get it.
