Leave No Stone Unturned in Your Search for Scholarships

If cost is a concern, you will want to search aggressively for additional scholarships from sources outside of universities and federal and state governments. Some examples are:

• Your high school guidance counselor

• Community Groups

• Your church

• Your place of employment and parents place of employment

• Internet sources:

  • The Smart Guide to Financial Aid
  • FastWeb.com
    
    

• Local Libraries for publications about scholarships:

  • Annual Register of Grant Support
  • The Scholarship Book, published by Prentice Hall
  • The Grants Register, published by St Martin's Press
  • Foundation Grants, published by the Foundation Center

You might be approached by a scholarship search service that charges a fee. We highly recommend that you do not use this method of searching for outside scholarships.
