Scholarship Tracker
Use this scholarship application tracker to stay organized and submit your applications on time. As you complete each step, check off or fill in the appropriate box. Note that not every application will require all the steps. Beware of scholarship scams, such as requests for your Social Security number, credit card or checking account number, or payments to apply.
Student Discount Page
Whenever you buy anything in a shop, or pay for food or drink, ask if there is a student discount. If you don’t ask, you don’t get it!
Managing Student Loans
As a rule of thumb, loans should be the last resort for paying for school, since they have to be paid back with interest. If you need to take school loans, the total amount borrowed should be no more than the STARTING salary for your career in the area you plan to work and only borrow what you NEED (you do not have to take the full amount that you are offered).
