SCHOLARSHIPS

Scholarship Application Tips: The scholarship application process is very similar to the college application process. First, you filter a large list of possible choices into a focused list that matches your requirements. Then you create compelling applications that are supported by your achievements, essays, recommendations, and interviews.

Here are some tips to help you create strong scholarship applications:
- Start Your Research Early
- Read Eligibility Requirements Carefully
- Organize All Scholarship Materials
- Make Sure Your Application Is Legible
- Proofread Your Application Carefully
- Don't Leave Items Blank
- Follow Instructions Carefully
- Make Copies of Everything You Send
- Double-Check Your Application
- Get Your Applications in Early
