Where to find and apply for scholarships?
Apply for scholarships early and often. Some scholarship deadlines are as early as a year before you start classes. You don't need to wait until you've made your final decision about your school to apply. But don't worry if you missed out on some of the earliest scholarship applications. There are lots of scholarship opportunities out there, all with different deadlines. As you get ready to apply for college scholarships, keep in mind that different scholarships have their own qualifying criteria and require certain documents. These tips can help as you choose which scholarships to apply for:
- Be careful.
- You shouldn't have to pay for scholarships or for scholarship searches. School counselors and school financial aid offices can recommend reputable options, like our free Scholarship Search tool.
- Be thorough.
- Don't overlook smaller scholarships. Even a few hundred dollars can help offset the cost of textbooks and supplies.
- Be honest.
- Don't exaggerate your grades, memberships, skills, or qualifications. You're more likely to receive scholarships if you apply for the ones that match your interests and skills.
- Be proactive.
- Apply for scholarships every year you're in college. Approximately 50 percent of available scholarships are for students already enrolled in college.
- Be diligent.
- Pay attention to details. Some scholarships require you to write an essay while others may want letters of recommendation. Send in what's requested and proofread everything. Typos and missing materials can be the difference between winning or losing a scholarship.
- Be on time.
- Some scholarships are very quick and easy to apply for. Others take a little more time. Meet all deadlines. If the scholarship application can't be submitted electronically, use certified mail. Missing a deadline could disqualify you.
