Graduate Scholarships For Older Students?

I am working towards my Masters in Integrated Marketing Communications at WVU. My current employer provided a 90% student loan, but now that the economy is so bad, I’m not sure they will be able to continue. I hope to teach at the University level after my career in B-to-B marketing; anyway, if the company doesn’t make it, I’ll need my Masters to get another job.

Do you know of any graduate scholarships for 55 year old graduate students? 99% of scholarships are designed for kids, not older people, yet we need to continue to update ourselves throughout our careers.

I promised my boss to do the best that I could to find scholarship money, I will appreciate your experience, thoughts and suggestions.
