Scholarship searching can be a tedious process. We will try to help you by featuring scholarships we hear about on this site. Remember, there are many more scholarships than the ones highlighted here, and we encourage you and your student to use school financial aid offices, internet search engines, and other community resources in your scholarship searches. Lastly, the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is a scholarship and grant application, too. So be sure to fill it out when it becomes available October 1, 2020 at fafsa.ed.gov.
We update this site biweekly with all of the new scholarships we hear about. There are two types of scholarships, merit-based and financial need-based. Make sure you read all of the requirements for each scholarship you are applying for so that you do not miss any information. Please apply online when available.
