Here are some tips that will help you:
- Apply to many scholarships with small awards rather than the large ones. These scholarships are less competitive to get.
- Look for scholarships that have niche requirements - for example, there are scholarships for students who are left handed!
- Apply to colleges which give out the most merit aid. If these schools accept you, they will give you merit scholarships automatically based on your college application.
- And of course, enter into CollegeVine's weekly $500 raffles! All you have to do is create a free CollegeVine account to enter.
Hope this helps!
