how can i find scholarships to be a teacher in new york?

Answer 1

A variety of scholarships are offered via New York state and private sources. All of these items are free to apply for consideration.

First, apply to FAFSA because it will help you tap into need based financial aid from both the federal government and the college itself.

Second, the New York Lottery offers a scholarship geared towards high school seniors worth $4,000 paid in increments of $1,000 a year.

Third, the high school guidance office offers a list of local scholarships for its current students to apply for consideration. This takes time to hear if you were selected.

Fourth, the college's financial aid website and office have a list of private scholarships from companies and organizations. This takes time to hear if you were selected.

Finally, join several free membership scholarship search websites. Most are updated on a regular basis. Most offer a customized search based on information you have filled out in a form. This takes time to hear if you were selected once you apply for a scholarship.

Good luck!
