[QUOTE="alank2, post: 3882779, member: 108"] Scholarships are a job in and of themselves. Most want a lot of work done to submit for them and this is no guarantee that they will come through. Start with the career counselors/scholarship advisors at the high school. They (scholarship givers) want to see community service if possible such as donating some time at the library, church, something else, etc. in addition to academic accomplishment. Work any specifics that you can that are interesting about your yound adult such as 1st generation college, 2nd generation college, etc. There are a ton of scholarships that are very specific to different students, parents being divorced, student has glasses, etc., so apply for anything that fits. Don't overlook community organizations like Elks, etc. All of it a huge daunting process. Applying to multiple colleges is a must, you don't know what each place will offer until the offer comes through. Start now, don't wait until spring to get on top of it. [/QUOTE]
