Need Financial Aid? Apply Early!
Since a lot of financial aid is awarded on a first- come, first-serve basis, be sure to fill out your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) early — in January or February for the fall school year. It determines how much money you and your family must contribute each year for your education and includes a section where you can identify the schools you are considering attending.

Scholarship Search Tips

  • Use the Internet - Try to use two search sources, make sure the profile submitted is accurate; don't pay fees - it does not increase your chances of winning!
  • Think small - Competition can be tough for large awards. Smaller awards ($1,000 and less) typically have less competition and are easier to obtain.
  • Winning smaller awards may increase the chances of winning a large award further down the road.
