Please don't post a scholarship search website!!!!

Answer 1

All scholarships require your acceptance into a university or college... so a scholarship search is your best bet.

Answer 2

You could search Google.com and Yahoo.com for scholarships based on your major. However, you missed most of the college scholarship deadlines out there by waiting until May of your senior year, so you will probably come across more scholarship deadlines have passed that method. You might be against the free scholarship search websites, but if you do the search engine approach, you could miss even more scholarship deadlines. I will include some free resources on the internet and in the community to locate money for 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, the high school guidance office has a list of local scholarships and state scholarships & grants.

Fourth, a campus work study job can help with money needed during the school year. The program is funded by the federal government. It will be a job on campus and most times can work to your availability schedule. There should be a box on the FAFSA form for it.

Fifth, fill out the FAFSA form after January 1 of your senior year of high school. It will qualify her for need based financial aid from the federal government and the school itself. It will come in the form of scholarships, Pell Grant, student loans, and the work study program.

Sixth, states do offer grant and scholarships for students with excellent grades. Search Google.com and Yahoo.com for these grants and scholarships with your state's name.

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!
