Scholarship Listings
Each year we are notified of various scholarships offered statewide or nationally. An updated list of scholarships is linked to this page. The purpose of this page is to give you a framework for how to go about pursuing scholarships that may be available for your child. The more work and legitimate effort your child is willing to put into the search process (which includes applying to the scholarships that require essays) the greater the chance they have of getting selected for a scholarship. I hope you find this resource useful and I wish you good luck in your search.
Some reminders: Never pay for any scholarships and scholarships never end. Keep applying for scholarships throughout your college career.
