There are numerous free scholarship search directories on
the Internet. These directories typically work the same. Avoid
web sites that may charge a fee and beware
of scholarship scams .
Here
is how a typical directory works: |
1. |
You
complete a personal profile by answering several questions
about your education, academic goals, career goals,
extracurricular activities, ethnicity, religious affiliation,
artistic talents, athletic talents, parent’s background
and affiliations, and other background information.
The
Scholarship Workbook will help you
identify and document information about yourself, your
educational and career goals, and your family’s
background. |
2. |
The directory
then matches your answers to the scholarships’
eligibility requirements within its database. |
3. |
After matching
scholarships that fit your personal profile, it will
provide you with a list of scholarships. It is your
responsibility to request an application from the scholarship
provider by visiting their web site, emailing, writing,
or calling. |
