Make sure to look through all the different scholarship categories and take advantage of the different scholarship resources!
If you are awarded scholarship money, you will need to coordinate closely with the college you plan to attend to make sure they know you are accepting the award. Checks for scholarship funds are almost always written directly to the college or university you plan to attend. And, don’t forget: accepting an outside scholarship will affect your financial aid package from the school, and may affect your Federal Financial Aid.
