I am working full time while trying to make it through a four year degree program to earn my Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science.  I am majoring in General Information Technology while leaning towards Networking.  My ultimate goal is to eventually create and manage a company that works with contractors to create assisted living smart homes for the elderly and the physically impaired.  I feel this will create a sense of security for the residents as well as their families.  I do not want to stop at a remote control that shuts lights out from one location.  I want to include voice recognition, automatic lighting, vehicle recognition, etc.  I also want to make this an affordable solution rather than an unattainable project.  I plan on becoming certified in many areas of Networking & Security and will acquire these titles as necessary for the position.  Currently, tuition is $1743 per 6 credit course with one course being paid via Federal Aid.  My Federal Aid worksheets show that I should be able to pay for anything beyond this (including all books, supplies, room & board, etc.) from my own pocket - I can't as I'm sure many other college attendees can't.  I've applied for alternative loans but, have failed to secure these loans due to not having a co-signer.  I do not have anyone that can co-sign the loan.  As you can see - I have a dilemma.  I would like to take on two courses, at least, per quarter and would prefer eventually three in order to complete my degree sooner.  I am searching for any type of aid available to help me with my career goals.  I am married and have two younger dependents, a house payment, two vehicle payments, etc.  (I'm sure many others do, too).

I am in my early 50's and used to make 6 figures, but bad investments have put my few properties into foreclosure.  My business should make money, but hasn't - it's credit is excellent, though.  I need to either invest in my buisiness or get back into a high-tech field that was so good to me in my earlier days, but I have huge debts (mostly mortgages), lots of IRS $$ due.  I wish I could sell my real estate or get an investment of about $100K against 1/4 acre of industrial urban vacant land (it has no mortgage on it) so I can either (a) revamp my business or (b) refresh my career skills - depending on how my capital I have. 

Hello;

My name is Steve. My Native American heritage is Blackfeet, Haida and Thlingit. I grew up (to 10 years of age) on the reservation.

Recently I became and ex-employee of Cisco Systems in the Silicon Valley (CA).  I struck a deal with Cisco to co-own the four patents that I developed while there. These patents are in the area of new Printed Circuit Board technology. Conservatively, this invention can save around 25% cost on large PCBs, such as the ones used by Cisco, Sun, IBM, HP and so on. This technology is fully qualified and ready to go.

My vision is to deploy this PCB technology to the industry.  This will be quite a breakthrough in the cost, performance, and component density of the PCB as well as significantly improve the design time based on board standardization and higher levels of design building blocks. Time to market for the customer will improve significantly.

I have a business plan and am working with a intellectual property law firm from Los Angeles now. We will be in international firm and will be protecting our ideas globally. This firm is very entheused about the prospects of this company.

I am seeking funding in the neighborhood of $2.5M. The business plan contains a 2-year horizon for the following statements: Balance Sheet, Shareholders Equity, Income & Expenses, and Projected cash flows, all broken down to month-by-month.

If you are interested in further discussions, my cell number is (408)309-8465. I'll be happy to share under NDA. I truly believe that this will revolutionize the industry.

My deal with Cisco is that I would share further developments with them.

Thank you so much, hope to hear from you - Steve

I am interestewd in attaining a Masters degree in Computer science and Mathematics in the hopes of teaching these courses in the Public School system in the area which I live. I have a number of years experience as a Teacher and wish that with this  . to go to another level of teaching especially in the area(s)  of education technology, special Needs Education and Bi ingual Education teaching  opportunities. There being a drastic need for these level  educators in the states schools and being something I enjoy , I wish to study for education and training on the Graduate School level for this reason...

I am looking for a scholarship to attend ITT-Tech. I am willing to work for a full and/or partial scholarship. I am a US resident and not a citizen. If anyone can help me persue my goals I will be very greatful.

I'm looking for grants for the study and development of terrersterial based RF technologies.

I am inquiring about government grant programs aimed towards expanding and /or keeping up to date, so to speak, an existing small business.  Our company, digitalmedix, Inc.,  is in the business of data/disaster recovery and have been performing these services for 7+ years.  Due to ever-increasing technology and in order to remain competitive in today's high-tech marketplace, our engineers require ongoing training and the newest, most innovative equipment to keep pace with other, larger companies in our field.  Unfortunately,  budgetary constraints are currently prohibiting us from funding  these needs ourselves.  Any information you can provide in regard to obtaining government grants that we may qualify for in this situation would be greatly aprreciated.

Sincerely

Dana Taylor
