It is HARD to get SCHOLARSHIPS!

Scholarships may be harder than college applications to find, complete and win. You can start looking at any age so here are some tips:

 Finding Scholarships and Helpful Hints

1. It is hard to find and earn FREE money

2. E-mail address- you may want to create a scholarship e-mail or be really good at putting your messages into folders

3. Set aside a time to apply for scholarship applications. I think one day a week, for one hour and fill out at least one application.

4. Use other area high schools’ websites to search as well.

5. The college you will be attending has many private and endowed scholarships. Find them and apply for them.

6. Use Naviance

7. Keep at it all year

8. Finding scholarships does not end once you enter college, there is much money out there once you are in a major and for different activities that you may want to do
