Students: This is a compiled list of just some of the larger scholarship awards. Most of these are VERY competitive and will include a challenging application process
but the rewards can be GREAT! With this said, DO NOT discount the smaller scholarship awards which can add up quickly, be less competitive and have a much easier
application process. The best way to locate the smaller awards would be to register on a few online scholarship search engines that can “customize” a search for
scholarships matching your needs, wants and college/career interests. I will include some of the better ones in the last row of this sheet. ALWAYS check directly with
the college you plan to attend for school-specific awards. Lastly, any unusual situation you have, Google for a scholarship on it. Good luck in your search!

Students: This is a compiled list of just some of the larger scholarship awards. Most of these are VERY competitive and will include a challenging application process
but the rewards can be GREAT! With this said, DO NOT discount the smaller scholarship awards which can add up quickly, be less competitive and have a much easier
application process. The best way to locate the smaller awards would be to register on a few online scholarship search engines that can “customize” a search for
scholarships matching your needs, wants and college/career interests. I will include some of the better ones in the last row of this sheet. ALWAYS check directly with
the college you plan to attend for school-specific awards. Lastly, any unusual situation you have, Google for a scholarship on it. Good luck in your search!
