When do I apply for scholarships?
That depends on each scholarship's deadline. Some deadlines are as early as annually before college starts, so if you're in senior high school now, you need to be researching and applying for scholarships during the summer between your junior and senior years. But when you've missed that window, don't give up! Look at scholarship information to see those that you are able to still apply for now.
How do I apply for scholarships?
Each scholarship has its own requirements. The scholarship's website should offer you a concept of who qualifies for the scholarship and how exactly to apply. Be sure you read the application carefully, fill it out completely, and meet the applying deadline.
How do I get my scholarship money?
That depends upon the scholarship. The cash might go directly to your college, where it will undoubtedly be applied to any tuition, fees, and other amounts your debt, and then any leftover funds given to you. Or it might be sent directly for you in a check. The scholarship provider should let you know what to expect when it informs you that you've been awarded the scholarship. If not, make sure to ask.
How does a scholarship affect my other student aid?
A scholarship will affect your other student aid because all your student aid added together can't be much more than your cost of attendance at your college or career school. So, you will need to let your school know if you've been awarded a scholarship so the financial aid office can subtract that amount from your cost of attendance (and from certain other aid, such as for instance loans, that it's likely you have been offered). Then, any amount left could be included in other financial aid for which you're eligible. Questions? Ask your financial aid office.
