   Here are sites you may want to check out:

   A few bits of advice regarding scholarships: Don’t restrict yourself with just searching for Academic and Merit Scholarships. You may want to check out major-based scholarships (those that are exclusive to people taking your course), state-based scholarships, need-based scholarships and even unusual scholarships. The more scholarship types you explore, the more chances you have of finding one that matches your qualifications.

   Remember, only apply to scholarships that you are 100% eligible for. If you missed out on just one requirement, don’t bother because you’ll only be wasting your time.

   The least restrictive scholarships would be corporate scholarships like those offered by Coca-Cola, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Toyota and others. But since they have few restrictions, competition for these types of scholarships are high. But it wouldn’t hurt you if you check them out. The more you can apply to, the better chances of winning.

   Lastly, follow instructions to the letter. Don’t allow yourself to be disqualified simply because you used the incorrect font or any error like that.

   I hope I helped
