Freeport High School students should focus their energy on our LOCAL scholarships because these are often awarded specifically to our graduating seniors! That means lower competition!
If you're looking for more, check out our curated list of state and national scholarships. This is a great place to start before using search engines. See below for some trusted suggestions. You should NEVER pay to apply.
Are you a junior eager to apply? There are plenty of opportunities to start early with a few local ones too! Juniors should see if they're eligible for the FHS Scholarship Foundation that is worth up to $50,000.
This is not an exhaustive list as many are simple information intake forms but you can be prepared by having the following:
request an official high school transcript from the guidance office,
request at least 2 letters of recommendation from your school counselor, teacher(s), or recent employer (Note: any letters of recommendation from your counselor must be submitted through the guidance office),
create a resume (here's an example and free templates),
include a letter of acceptance from your top college choice,
include your Student Aid Report from FAFSA,
and draft up essays well in advance to avoid missing deadlines.
Find the right scholarships for you using our Level All app โโ Start by adjusting the filter settings at the top of the website to narrow your results.
Remember that you are competing against thousands of other students when you apply for national scholarships. Please also note that not all scholarships are legitimate. If you are trying to improve your odds, invest your time in applying to our Local Scholarships.
