Paying for College

Obtaining Scholarships

I'm a member of several of the scholarship sites and have been applying to several of the easy scholarships weekly, but never seem to have any luck. What is the best way to secure scholarships for college? I would like to avoid some student loan debt (I know I'll have some) and my parents are able to contribute $7500 each year, so scholarships are necessary to help with the overall costs to attend.

Your grades and your ACT/SAT scores are two ways to secure scholarship spots. Also, great scholarship essays can get you some scholarships. I hope this helps!
