Here is a link. Many states do offer tuition assistance for foster kids who were adopted after age 16 but usually only for a primary degree. GRad school would be up to them or family to pay.
Hope this helps!! |

There are a handful of states that provide instate tuition for foster children. I don't know which states these are, but ANY caseworker in your state should be able to tell you if your children qualify and how to apply. There have also been changes to the FAFSA for teens in foster care...adopted or not....the link below tells you more about that.
