i've began to look for scholarships (class of 2023) for college, however most of them have MANY requirements I don't meet. i'm not part of a minority, and i have about a 2.9 cumulative GPA. every one i've entered/written an essay for I haven't heard back form. i've used sites such as
Unigo and Cappex. any tips?
