Where can i find 4 year college scholarships?

Question

I'm in 9th grade
Texas and I'm not sure if i can apply for a sholarship yet

Answer 1

Join the Air Force or the Navy. They will pay for everything that you will need and you'll get about 1400 a month pay checks.
Or you can join job corps. They will provide you with your basic needs and an allowance and it's a good training program. I suggest going into the medical field or being an electrician.

Answer 2

It is never too early to start looking for scholarships. There are a limited number of scholarships out there that a ninth grade student can apply for college. I will provide some free sources to locate college scholarships.

First, studying and good grades does pay in regards to college scholarships. There are colleges out there that offer scholarships for it. It is based on the GPA and SAT/ACT scores.

Second, after January 1 of the senior year of high school, fill out the FAFSA form. This will tap into need based financial aid from the state and federal governments along with the college itself. It is based on family income and financial resources.

Third, if in sports, it pays to play your hardest and work to improve. There are athletic scholarships out there for becoming a part of a Division one or two college or university.

Fourth, the high school guidance office and guidance counselor do have a list of local scholarships for senior students.

Fifth, some local and national companies do offer scholarships to high school students such as Tylenol, Johnson & Johnson, Coca Cola, Microsoft, etc.

Sixth, the public library has a book listing scholarships with some not even listed on the web.

Finally, join several free membership scholarship search websites. There are scholarships for ethnicity, hobbies, school activities, college majors, and even a scholarship for wearing duct tape to the high school prom. Most are updated on a regular basis. Most offer a customized search based on information entered into a form on its website. This can be done now and maybe find a scholarship or two, but there will be more scholarships to qualify for as time goes on.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Yes. There are. Just make sure you know of the requirements. Every scholarship will be different. I have known about students who amassed scholarships totaling over $200k BEFORE they had even enrolled to college. Some won't let you...but others will. Just review the requirements.

Good luck and you're SMART to do this now! ;)
