I am almost complete with my degree for Criminal Justice in a Bachelors program. This will probably bee my last semester if I can't funding. I have used all my pell grant money and financial aid and don't know how I am going to pay for the rest of the classes. The grant would really help me out and give me the motivation I need to finish.
