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

How do you prepare for college (mentally)?

A) I've never really had to study, as school's been easy so far, and I'm scared for when it gets harder.
B) I'm uncertain how I will take care of my mental health while away in college, and I am scared for this.
