An organization based in Fargo, North Dakota, ACLSMedicalTraining.com
reached out to us and asked that we made people aware of a site they have
created, which lists many sources of scholarships for person with
disabilities who are or will be attending college.  Here it is -
https://www.aclsmedicaltraining.com/financial-aid-opportunities-for-disabled
-individuals/.  You would have to check with the individual scholarship
sources to see if any of them would allow an individual to use the
scholarship to pay for AT that cannot be otherwise funded.
