It is finally here! The last month of the year! Summer is here, school is gone, but the grind is not. For the summer, I will be leaving you with an absolutely amazing scholarship search engine, so that even when you are out having fun in the sun, some time can be set aside to prevent that dreaded college debt. I will also be entrusting you scholars with a spreadsheet of scholarships that I have personally picked for anyone wanting to stay in Oregon for their college experience. Let's get started!
Fastweb is this amazing scholarship search engine for high schoolers and college students alike. It provides instant access and easy accessibility to hundreds of scholarships. The wonderful thing about Fastweb is that it allows for one to tailor it so that one can come across scholarships that are perfect for you! One of the best parts of Fastweb is the diversity of these scholarships; some of them don't even require essays! Earning money for your education just got a whole lot easier!
"The Sheet" is a spreadsheet that I have personally cultivated in the event that I decide to continue my education in the beautiful state of Oregon; but one day, I was talking with some friends and they told me they were worried about financing their education and worried that they would not be able to find any scholarships to aid them. I decided to help them out and look into pockets of funds that would greatly benefit them, and I think that I could do the same for all of you. Please look into this sheet and, hopefully, it will benefit you in some manner and reduce your worries about college tuition.
Once again, remember to use the other form at the bottom of the page to provide some feedback.
Until next year, work hard--and good luck!
