Scholarships
For some, the word “scholarship” conjures up visions of super-intelligent college-bound kids with astronomical scores or star athletes scooping up full-ride four-year awards. The truth is that only about 0.1% of students (less than 20,000) receive full-ride scholarships each year, compared with the 6 million active college scholarships worth $30 billion that can be found.
With that much available aid, your chances of getting a scholarship may be better than you think.
Some Facts about Scholarships
- Scholarships are usually merit- or talent-based, using grades or a special ability as the criteria.
- Scholarship rules and requirements vary greatly depending on who is offering the scholarship and why.
- Timing is a critical element in the scholarship quest. Consider using a scholarship search service to locate funding resources before putting your own cash into the equation.
- Realize that some major fields of study, like engineering and English, offer subject-specific financial rewards.
- 42% of scholarships can’t be found searching Google due to the old-fashioned way so many scholarships are set up on charity or foundation websites.
- It’s worth applying for grants and scholarships, regardless of your GPA or extracurricular resume. Your chances are better than you might think!
