Everybody can use some help when it comes to paying for college.
There are A LOT– maybe too many— scholarships out there.
Too many options mean not knowing where to start, which means not starting at all.
Too many students are eligible for scholarships but don’t know about them until they’re crying about the money they don’t have.
When applying for scholarships, doubt kicks in: “What are the chances?!”The chance of you winning that scholarship money is higher than 0%, which is the case if you don’t apply at all.
Here are 25 scholarships that all students should apply to!
If you missed the first deadline, don’t worry! The following awards are offered several times a year– some monthly, some quarterly, and some biannually!
