Scholarships/Pre-College Program Opportunities

 

 
 
Scholarships are free money you do not have to pay back. You must apply for them and submit the information yourself. A school counselor or even a favorite teacher can help you with the process.
Each scholarship can decide what you have to do to win the scholarship, for example, write a 2 page essay and submit your transcripts. 
There are ALL kinds of scholarships out there! Millions of dollars of scholarships go unclaimed because people simply don't apply. There are scholarships for athletes, people that love to write, future scientists, music lovers, undocumented students, students of a particular ethnic group, local scholarships and SO much more.
Remember, scholarships are money you never have to pay back. It's simply money either paid to you or to the college you attend in return for the few hours of work it will take to complete the application. It is WORTH YOUR TIME! Look at all the variety of scholarships there are...Each scholarship has a due date and an "Award date" meaning when they will notify you that you won the scholarship.
