Scholarship General Information
-
Scholarships can help you pay for college! Schools, non-profit, and private organizations offer scholarships to students to help pay for post-secondary education. Scholarships are considered Gift Aid and do not need to be repaid. Some scholarships will require specific criteria to apply, such as financial needs, specific ethnic groups, organization affiliation, or residency requirements. Each scholarship application is different and deadlines vary throughout the year. Merit-based scholarships are awarded through the colleges that students apply to. Merit-based scholarships are typically awarded based on the college application with no separate application required. Merit-based scholarships are awarded based on GPA, test scores, and/or class-rank. There are multiple FREE scholarship search websites. You should never pay for a scholarship search.
