Scholarships
Scholarships are one way to help cover the costs of education. Scholarships vary in size and application requirements. Some scholarships are awarded based on grades and achievement, while others are awarded based on need. Unlike loans, they do not have to be repaid. The scholarship application process is separate from the federal and state financial aid application. Students can search for scholarships year-round and deadlines are scattered throughout the year.
