Internet Inequalities

Financial Aid, the Internet, and Low-Income Students

Kristan M. Venegas

University of Nevada-Reno

This article focuses on the Web-based resources available to low-income students as they build their perceptions, make their decisions, and engage in financial aid activities. Data are gathered from the results of focus groups and case studies. Findings suggest that low-income students do have access to computers but lack the knowledge and support needed to navigate the financial aid resources available online.

Key Words: financial aid • Internet • low-income students
