It is possible to get a full scholarship if you are an athlete or a merrit scholarship. Harvard has instituted it for students coming from families earning under $40,000 a year. However, for the average student, there is options to locating money for college. I will list several free sources to find money to attend college.

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 locate local scholarship information at the high school guidance office.

Fourth, FAFSA is a free application form to qualify for need based financial aid from the government along with the college itself. It qualifies a student for Pell Grants, government student loans, and the federal work study program. It needs to be renewed each year after January 1 for the upcoming fall semester or quarter until graduation.

Finally, I recommend joining several free membership scholarship search websites, but the best I have located is Scholarship Experts since they have a very thorough and lengthy survey to complete compared to Fastweb. 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!

It is possible, all you have to do is study hard. To be realistic, you probably won't get a ride, but I'm just using averages. If you can get high enough SAT or ACT scores then you could get a free ride. Also the schools look at your other extra-curricular activities. They want a well rounded person not just an egg head. Good luck and study hard.
