I Have not Received ANY Scholarships! 60+ applications!
I have applied to many merit and need-based scholarships. I am from a middle class family and have a 5.4 unweighted GPA, as well as a 1520 on my SAT. I am half Asian and half white. Both my parents are first-generation college students. We have low income and high assets, and I really want to reduce the financial burden of paying for college on my parents, especially since we aren't getting any grants from the government or university. I am attending Texas A&M University for Engineering this fall and am getting very frustrated, since I started applying since the beginning of the year. I filled my FAFSA correctly, and have already received loan options from A&M only. I have received two scholarship rejections and nothing else. I have spent countless hours on dozens of pages of essays, grammar checking, proofreading, rewriting, and I have not received anything. I admit I am not very good at writing in general, but I am really trying my best here! I've written about my success stories, my failures, my personal stances on controversial topics, my ethnic background, my interest in engineering, analysis of technological breakthroughs and applications of engineering, my dream to contribute to space exploration, environmental issues, and many other topics! I have applied to every local scholarship that I could find, and have also applied to nearly every scholarship I was fit for in three main scholarship-search websites. These are Scholarships.com , CollegeGreenlight.com , and ScholarshipOwl.com (Mostly CollegeGreenlight) I have mailed(physically), emailed, filled out Google Forms, done online applications, submitted multiple letters of recommendations from my teachers and counselor, sent my transcript, SAT scores, and just about anything else I was asked for every time. I have applied to scholarships related to my specific interest in Engineering, as well as more general groups, such as PSAs and quick-and -dirty 1 minute applications(only a couple). I also submitted scholarships relating to my passions as a competitive swimmer and high level musician. I have applied for scholarships ranging from $500 to $10,000. I even have a spreadsheet keeping track of each scholarship I have applied to. I always read the requirements and qualifications of each application, and made sure I live in the right area, have the right interests/experiences, and meet any other criteria. I have given all the above information about myself to these applications whenever possible. What am I doing wrong? To date, I have applied to over 60 scholarships since January. Thank you for taking your time to read this. #scholarship #college #financial-aid #help #engineering #rejections #essay
What are the best scholarships for international students as a Class of '24 incoming freshman?
I am a South African student who will be attending an American state university in the fall. However, due to laws that prevent my university from providing me with aid because I am an international student, I might struggle to pay to attend. I really do not want to use large loans as a solution because of the chances of incurring huge amounts of debt. Any advice or scholarship suggestions that could help last minute? #college #scholarship #student #financial-planning #financial-aid
Any tips on saving for university?
Hi! I’m hoping to attend university in a few years and the financial burden of it all has been worrying me. I’m a high school student, and the only source of income in my family comes from my dad. I’ve spoken with my parents about plans for college and it seems that they expect me to at least partially rely on scholarships and financial aid to be able to afford an undergraduate education. I‘d be willing to take up a job or whatever other options there are for someone in my position. I know it’s a pretty vague question, but I’d really appreciate it if anyone would share how they managed their tuition fees. What would you recommend I look into so that I can avoid any serious debt in the future? What can I do throughout high school to take some of the stress off of my parents’ shoulders? Any general guidance would be very helpful! #college #financial-aid #scholarship #financial-planning #university #high-school

I want to finish college but...
I tried researching for scholarships, but I can not really trust any of them. I have so many time since I was in high school, now I'm a college student and I still haven't gotten any scholarships. My weakness when it comes to applying for scholarships is the essay part. I want to find a scholarship in (IT) or any technical filed or any scholarships that will be helpful and get through school years. I really don't want to take out loans at ALL. I also found out that ALL of my classes require a special class fee, which made it worst and it increases my tution fees. I want to finish college, I'm almost there, I will be a Junior after this semester. I do not want to become a college drop out, I have been in school all my life to be considering that. I wish I was the Top 10% student so that everything will be easy. But I wasn't. #financial-aid #money #college-admissions #scholarship #college #technology #IT #InformationTechnology #finacialSupport #Housing

School may be committing fraud.
So after I had already been dropped out of school for more than a month and a half, still my school had pulled out a $5,000 portion of the financial aid for the next semester. And I've been notified several times, for several weeks prior, that I would be considered dropped out the next semester. #college #college #financial-aid
