There are many resources in both your community and on the web to locate money to attend college. All of the sources listed are free to use and apply for consideration.

First, the college's financial aid office and website has a list of private scholarships offered from outside organizations and companies. Sometimes a college major's website will list scholarships, too.

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

Third, current high school students can find a list of local scholarships in the high school guidance office.

Finally, I recommend joining several free membership scholarship search websites. There are scholarships for a variety of things including ethnicity, clubs, hobbies, and even wearing duct tape to the high school prom. Most are updated on a regular basis. Most offer a customized search based on information entered onto a form on the website.

Good luck!

try to aim for grants/scholarships more... they are not to be paid back. its confusing sometimes, but just keep applying. Scholarships usually have a 1 or 2 page application, and require an essay. Take your time with the essay, so yours stands out.

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, call then write. Its all worth it.

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

Wow, I'm so happy someone asked this question! I have lots of websites!

Only problem is I'm at school and the papers are at home. The college I'll be attending Fall 2008 gave me a list of scholarships to go to...

Apply for scholarships. I'm also in the same dilemma. I'm 16 years old and the college I'd like to attend is very expensive. They gave me a list of websites to go to in order to obtain scholarships.

You apply and if you meet qualifications (on some of them the qualifications are things only such as having to be enrolled in high school, or just write an essay, put name in for a contest, or some you just apply for.)

You can apply for as many as you like, it's just up to you to go and apply. The lady in the admissions office at my college said some kids come in who have racked up to about $10,00 dollars in scholarships...

You can email me on my contact page if you want the list of websites. I'm at school and I do not have the papers here, they're at home.

Good luck!

fastweb.com
scholarships.com

and check out the school website, but never pay for a scholarship search.
