Unless you do excellent in community college, your chances aren't the best. With a 2.0, you're not expected to do that well in higher education.

Answer 1 :
I've never heard of this, ask your counselor. Sorry about your loss, but I have to say, it seems they give people money these days for EVERYTHING except good grades. Black, Hispanic, Indian, Crippled, Woman, ......but straight up hard work and good grades? Pass....
Answer 2 :
If there was such a thing, then it would seem that the majority of students would be attending college for free. .... As it seems that everyone that has some personal issue - whether it be left-handedness, single-motherhood, lesbianism, minority, loss of parent - thinks they should be eligible for a free college education. Sorry, but nothing in life is free.
