Information regarding scholarships:
● Be aware of deadlines and make sure applications are submitted before the due dates.
● Nearly all colleges and universities offer scholarships through their financial aid offices. A separate application is sometimes required and the application deadline may be different from the admission application deadline. Consult the college admission office or their website for this information.
● Remember to check with parents’ employers, student’s employer, churches and any organizations or clubs you may be involved in for available scholarship.
● Be wary of services that guarantee you scholarship money for a fee - it is usually a scam!
The following websites are available for scholarship searches:
