Scholarship Search Engines
-
There are thousands of scholarships available to help fund your education. Students create an account on any of these Scholarship Search Engines to find a wide variety of opportunities:CSS Profile (a College Board search engine - costs may apply!)Scholarship Guidance Newsletter (must sign up to receive monthly newsletter)Here's a scholarship search handout detailing what to expect when you visit some of the sites noted above.The 10 Best Scholarship Search platform, Best Scholarship Search and Honest Product Reviews websites have links to the above Search Engines, and many more.
Some scholarship search engines may ask you to pay - you should never pay for a scholarship search!
You always want to make sure you actually meet the requirements of a scholarship. Even though the search engine states that you meet a requirement for a scholarship, it might not always be the case.
Example: You say you are a high school senior but it does not specifically ask you what high school. Every high school senior in Washboard will be told they qualify for the "Auburn High School" scholarship. However, the scholarship is only for seniors who are attending and graduate from Auburn High School.If you are a First-Generation college student (neither of your parents have earned a bachelor's degree!), and are interested in going to an Ivy League college, check out Quest Bridge, a website that helps First-Gen students achieve their dream of attending a major university at reduced tuition!
