I recieved student aid for all 4 of my undergraduate years. I did not have to take out any loans. I am very interested in going to graduate school to further my education. However, money is very,very tight for me.
Can I recieve free grants (student aid) to *entirely* pay for my master’s degree program without having to take out any loans?
any websites with information will also be appreciated!
and/or your personal experience paying for graduate school.

Check with the financial aid office. They will give you the correct answers.
Grants are not available to graduate students, grants are only available for students pursuing their first bachelor’s degree. So you cannot rely on grants to pay for your Master’s. (As they assume you would have had a job and made your own money by the time you get your Bachelor’s.)
Loans are a form of student aid. And in your situation you will have to rely on graduate loans and scholarships to pay your way through the Master’s program.
Sorry, but that’s how it works. You should talk to your financial aid counselor for more information.
