Do you know of any scholarships available to African American students?

Question

If so,could you give me the web address, or a link to the scholarshihp's site? Thanx

Answer 1

there are some great links posted by some here. and there are plenty of them out there. one site lists dozens of them, but you need to take your time and pick through, you'll find what you need.

its worth it...beleive me. once you've found one, contact them and ask when the deadline is, where you can find the application and if they require an essay.

try to aim for grants/scholarships more... they are not to be paid back. its confusing sometimes, but just keep applying.

every big (and small) company you see (manufacturer, orgs, corps and groups also) all have grants and scholarships they hand out like candy. Walmart, Kmart, Target, Coke, computer companies etc etc etc

heres a link with a HUGE amount of some available. some you will need to copy and paste into a new window. also, fastweb (take the time to fill it in) will search databases and get back to you with a list of scholarships you qualify for.

Also contact all mens, womens associations in your state, they almost always have grants & scholarships. What ever field you are going into, contact the orgs, associations etc for them; Also check with professional organizations related to your career interests, such as the American Bar Association or the American Medical Association. they also always have scholarships.

Research and dig, dig, dig.

OVER apply; it doesnt hurt to have too many, and the extra funds can help with housing.
