Every college has a scholarship department. They even provide you with a list of scholarship websites depending upon your major. Another way to gain additional access to scholarships is my by joining sorority associations or becoming an active member of the Associated Student Organization or Athletic associations. Otherwise, you can find out more about community services that not only offer you a lot of work experience, but a stipend to cover you for college funds and tuition costs plus a full ride scholarship which can range anywhere from $200 - $15,000 or more per semester or per year depending.
Good Luck.

With those kind of grades, you can't get a full merit scholarship. BUT, there are two things you can do: 1) Either get admitted to a university with an ROTC program. There's a military commitment afterward, but you get commissioned as a military officer, AND they pay for all your tuition and food. 2) Or you can go to a community college for two years, then transfer to a good school if you've got the grades Best of luck!

1) get in the top 10% percantile academically. Then apply to scholarships.
2) be darn good at a sport, and meet the minimum academic requirements to enroll.
3) rob a bank.

Either be very smart, or very athletic.
And deserve it financially in combination with one or both of the above.
So you can see that there is no such thing as a "free ride," since both getting good grades AND being athletic take hard work and practice.

It depends. It could be exceptional academics and leadership, it could be sports or art related. Check out fastweb.org for tons of scholarship opportunities.

by getting all and only 4.0 averages, and play 2 music instruments, and full SAT and ACT score, and be a well known athlete and be on student council. :D hope it's not too late.
