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.

I found this article extremely helpful,as I too believed I was limited on how many places I can apply for scholarships
I am grad student in search of scholarship money.
Im a senior in high school and it seems like most of the scholarship websites are not for me and I can apply. So where would the best place to search at. And how hard is it to get a scholarship
Guidance couselors are a great way to start because they not only give you information on the scholarships, but sometimes they’ll even help you get together the papers you need for those really big scholarships. Thanks so much! I’ll check out the websites!
