Get Money for SI!
I know you're looking for sources of funding and here are some resources to help you out. Take note...you should start this around January because most due dates are in March early April.
Scholarships Fellowships etc

Women in Computing
http://www.awc-aa.org/scholarship.aspx (deadline is April 1 so next year for incoming students! )
ALA Spectrum Scholarship
(This is a library org but b/c SI is a library accredited school you can swing your essay
to apply to libraries as well as work related to your specialization. I won the scholarship and I'm an HCI student. SI also
matches this funding source as well as the Women in Computing monies.
