Hi Prachi, getting a scholarship as an international student for an undergrad in the US is an uphill task. A few things could help:
1. Stellar SAT score
2. Stellar/consistent academic track record
3. Exceptional extra-curricular activities (should show strong leadership/team work) with a solid proof of national/international recognition
4. Very strong recommendation letters
5. Clear/logical and impressive statement-of-purpose/essays for your proposed field of education
Other things that may also matter:
1. Knowing multiple foreign languages in addition to English (e.g., French, Spanish etc.)
2. Previous international exposure in academics or extra-curricular domain
3. Lots of money to show in your bank balance to clearly demonstrate that you can support yourself even without financial aid
4. Luck (for getting admission, financial aid and of course visa)

properly, it relies upon on what you're involved in getting out of a school education. Lake area State college is a community college, the place lots of the scholars are taking training the two no longer attempting for a complete degree or interior the hopes of moving to a greater college. you will in all probability could desire to locate your very own housing (no dorms) and guard your very own expenditures. be sure you recognize if that's what you opt for previously you deliver the money! wish this facilitates.

Scholorship are a dog eat dog type of thing. Sometimes what separates the one getting the scholorship and the one in second place may be a matter of a few points, or even a fraction of one point.Talk to your high school counselor, and he can give you the current info on what is available.
