Dos and Don’ts When Looking for Scholarships
Don’t wait until the last minute!
Do dedicate a fair amount of time and energy to finding and applying for scholarships.
Do search for scholarships in all categories that may be a possible match for you. Apply to all of them! The more you apply to, the better the odds of receiving them.
Do start the search for scholarships and apply early. The earlier, the better.
Do read and follow the instructions for each scholarship carefully. Every scholarship’s criteria may have different requirements. Don’t lose out on aid because you didn’t follow the directions!
Don’t spend money to make money. Beware of scams!
Do stay organized!
Do keep your grades up! Now is not the time for a case of senioritis!
Do clean up your socials! Some organizations may want to know more about you and will look online! Take the time to clean up your online presence to show off the best version of yourself!
Don’t send the same essay with every application if one is required. Some may have different requirements, and you may need to personalize the essay to fit that requirement.
