How can I best go about getting scholarships? It all seems so random and luck of the draw.

I am a senior in high school. I will not get much, if any, help from the financial aid program because of my parents’ income. However, they are not planning to pay for my college education. I need scholarships! #Fall25

After considering the amount of violence that Journalists go through on the daily, I still want to be one but I want to be safe and I wonder why type of Journalists would I need to be in order for me to be safe?

I decided to be a journalist after coming to the conclusion that I'm awful at math. Then, I did some research and realized the work that these Journalists put in and I value the way they still stand tall when times are tough.
