I would like to find grants or scholarships to take college classes in the evenings. I’m a full time working, married mother of two kids. Does any one have any ideas or advice? What about the online classes has anyone ever got a accredited degree from a school worth investing all that money into?

Fill out your FAFSA online and it will give you a clearer picture of what money you can expect from loans. After you have been notified that your fafsa has been sent to your school of chioce make an appointment in the financial aid office for assistance, the advisor should be able to give you advice on the scholarships and grants that you can apply for. Much of this will depend on what major you are looking into and your income.
Many of the degrees that you get online are really expensive and employers look at them in a different way than they look at real colleges.
If you are working you may want ot check and see if your work will pay for any of the expenses.

Aside from FAFSA http://www.fafsa.ed.gov and Pell Grant http://studentaid.ed.gov/students/publications/student_guide/2004_2005/english/types.htm , you may want to explore private foundation grants
For private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center’s Foundation Grants for Individuals Online http://gtionline.fdncenter.org . It’s a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) and their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices."
