Can I begin applying to scholarships before starting a vocational program?

I noticed that most scholarships require being currently enrolled in a program. Where can I find scholarships that will allow me to apply before I start?

Hi Halle. Yes, you can start looking for scholarships before you begin a vocational program, but it's important to know that many scholarships only give money to students who are already enrolled.

A good first step is to look specifically for "entrance scholarships" or awards aimed at incoming students, as these are designed for individuals who have been accepted into a program but haven't started yet. You can usually find these scholarships on the vocational school's website or by asking the school's financial aid office. They can tell you what scholarships are available for incoming students.

You can also use online scholarship databases. They may let you filter scholarships by your student status, including incoming or new students. Some private foundations and companies also give scholarships to students who are planning to start a program soon. They usually ask for a letter of acceptance or proof that you will enroll.

Another way to find scholarships is to look for ones based on your personal background, interests, or career goals, rather than enrollment status. Many organizations offer awards for financial need, community service, leadership, or a specific trade or career field. Good luck.

Logically, funders dedicate a lot of time and resources to those who have already made the commitment, but there are scholarships given by commercial companies for their customers of various products. Also parents/family employee perks. Veterans families as well. Research, Research, Research! Welcome To Adulthood!
