SCHOLARSHIPS

Scholarships can be need-based or merit-based and also generally do not need to be repaid.

Be sure to check the qualifications as well as the DEADLINE for each scholarship.

The largest amount of scholarship money comes from colleges themselves. Always check with your college of choice for scholarships they award for need, merit or specific areas of study.
