Happy Wednesday everyone! This week we are talking about everyone’s favorite way to pay for college: scholarships. Every student turns to scholarships before considering loans because scholarships do not need to be paid back. Some students think that scholarships are very hard to find, but in reality they are everywhere. Looking for scholarships that you qualify for can take a little bit of time however there are a ton of resources that can help you.
The first place to turn to when looking for scholarships is your high school’s guidance department. They usually have scholarship resources from your local community. They will be able to provide you will applications for scholarships given out by churches, the local rotary club, chamber of commerce and various scholarship foundations.
Another place to look for scholarships is online. StudentScholarshipSearch.com is a website that aggregates scholarships from a variety of different sources. Every student can find scholarships that they qualify for on this site. New scholarships are posted every day so make sure you check back often!
ScholarshipPoints.com is a website that gives away free scholarships every month. On the site you can earn points for reading blogs, listening to podcasts and doing various other activities. You can then use these points to enter $500, $1,000 and $10,000 scholarship drawings.
So there you have it; three great ways to get free money for college. Even if you are not attending college until next fall a lot of scholarship deadlines are early in the year so definitely make sure you star exploring these options now.
