there sure is, and make sure you spread the word about what you find... and where, to help others with their schooling also.

there are government loans & grants (free) and then there are private loans & scholarships (free). i dont know your needs or interests, so i will post all that i have on all of them.

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

A lot of corporations want to be seen as "good neighbors" in the community. And they need a way to attract young workers. So some of them grant scholarships, usually from $1,500 to $10,000.

When visiting the websites of these companies, on the home page look for something like: ABOUT US or CORP INFO. Click on that, and then look for something like: COMMUNITY or COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT.

check out:
1. BestBuy (2 scholarships from each store for $1,500 and they enter you at their headquarters for a $10,000 scholarship).

2. Comcast (your high school principal must recommend you for a $1,000 scholarship. They also have paid internship at a limited number of locations nationwide.)

3. Cracker Barrel (www.cbrlgroup.com) for employees, or their children - $1,000

4. Kohls (each store awards $50 and a certificate; then submits their winners to the region. Regional winners receive $1,000 and are submitted to the corporate headquarters. Corporate level winners get a $5,000 scholarship and a $1,000 donation to their favorite charity.)

5. Wal-Mart (www.walmartfoundation.org) Each store awards $1,000 to 2 students at each school in their area. Or if you have been an employee for 12 months, you qualify to apply for a $2,500 scholarship.

6. McDonalds (as Ronald McDonald House Charities at: www.RMHC.ORG) varies by region of the county. But a typical award is $1,000. May be from the corporation or from an association of stores in your area.

Each of these companies have a simple application (1–2 pages) process.

Yes there is. Go to fastweb.com and search for scholarships. You should apply and submit all the things required to all the scholarships you qualify for. Universities wont know how many scholarships you applied for cuz you dont have to tell them. You just have to tell them which scholarships accepted you and gave you money.




good luck :-)

i'm going to be observing ok, and the next day is an entire day of baseball with the Sox and Rays having a double header so i'm excited. This sequence is substantial because of the shown fact that the Sox can close the door on the Rays season, and with our 3 high quality pitchers this weekend they bigger sweep them, yet whilst they do no longer then the wild card race ought to get exciting. i'm going to be protecting an eye fixed on L and needless to say B, even regardless of the undeniable fact that the Sox won't probably win the branch yet you never understand.

SFSU has a decent number of scholarships. Check out their financial aid website at http://www.sfsu.edu/~finaid/. Also, don't rule out getting a student loan from the government. For more info on that, go to http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/.
