Hi Dalton,
Applying for scholarships takes a lot of time and effort! I don’t say that to discourage you, but to encourage you to start early and avoid waiting until the last minute. Staying organized with deadlines, essays, and application requirements can make a huge difference.
A great place to start is with local scholarships. Research opportunities offered through your school, community organizations, local businesses, and clubs. These scholarships often have fewer applicants, which can improve your chances of receiving one.
Another helpful resource is the book The Big Book of Scholarships. It includes a wide variety of scholarship opportunities for students from many different backgrounds, interests, and career paths.
I’d also recommend applying to as many scholarships as you reasonably can — even smaller awards add up and can help cover books, supplies, or tuition costs over time.
