Where are good places to find scholarships, I just can't find any scholarships for me. I have a 3.97 GPA I'm in the top 13% of my class, I don't do any extracuriculars or community service, but I am part of a low income household and need scholarships to help get me through college. Any suggestions...

There is a great website that will list all of the scholarships which you are eligible once you register. Registration costs no money and this site is 100% legitimate, per my financial aid adviser. The site is listed below:

First of all, if you are from a low-income household, you may very well be eligible for grants. Everyone always thinks scholarships, but there are relatively few of those, and most don't cover too much of your tuition. I don't know if you have already applied for college, but you will find that if you fill out the financial aid forms, the college you attend will provide you with a package of different forms of financial aid to make it possible for you to attend. It will probably include grants, loans, and work study. Then, with your GPA, they may also see you as a potential scholarship recipient. You might also contact the department you would be in to ask them if they have anything for which you would be eligible.

You can check fastweb.com, but most of your scholarships will come from the university you apply to and the federal and state governments. You'll have to fill out the FAFSA, you can google it and find out more. I highly recommend you start some extra-curricular activities to put on your apps though.
