I would like to move from the UK to the US next year, but i need help finding a scholarship that is available for a 16 year old. First, is it possible for a 16 year old to get a scholarship. And second, which websites do i visit for information on scholarships. Please give extra advice. Many thanks. Mark Edney

Most scholarships are available for college students, so if you are planning on going to high school, I don't think there are that many available, but you can always contact study abroad agencies and see what options you may have.
For a directory with scholarships and study abroad agencies links, check out this site:

Well i the thing is you couldnt get one until 18 really! And it depends what scholarship you want to do like which sport?? as i can help further from here, but if i had some advice to give i would wait until you were 18. Ive heard some bad stories of people going before they were 18 so i would recomend you improve in your sport for 2 years!

You can apply for scholarship from junior year in high school but accepted you have to wait until you graduate to attend a college or university in U.S.
Because you come from UK, I assume that English is your first language, in order to apply for scholarship you have to have high G.P.A + ACT and/or SAT test score to be considered. There are also some scholarships don't required these things but very limited. For example, writing essay.

Are you talking about a college in the US? If so, you would go through the same applications for scholarships and finacial aid as an student. I am assuming you will have graduated high school.
