Are there any sites for college scholarship applications?

Question

I'm a junior in high school and i just need to find some applications for scholarships.I need all the information I can get. Thank you very much!

Answer 1

Yes, there are many sources to locate scholarship applications in your community and on the web. You have selected an excellent time to begin searching for scholarships. I will include some free resources to locate scholarship 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, the high school guidance office has a list of local scholarships and state scholarships & grants. This can be done in the senior year.

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, study and practice for the SAT or ACT tests. It can help bring merit scholarships from the college itself. Prepare for the PSAT which could bring in scholarship money with excellent scores. I recommend using test preparation book, software, or a test preparation course.

Seventh, 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!

If I had to recommend a scholarship search website, I would recommend strongly Scholarship Experts. I have utilized both Fastweb and Scholarship Experts and found Scholarship Experts' survey more thorough than Fastweb. It includes more questions and more answer choices. It even includes former employers, disability questions, situational questions, and more.
