I remember my scholarship search before I graduated from high school pretty well. I spent countless hours pouring through books and searching the internet with my mom and dad, crossing our fingers that we would come across something that I qualified for. We encountered many late nights, and I had a new-found after school project- must find scholarships! Of course, scholarship hunting has changed in the past eleven years, and now there are wonderful places to look for scholarships!

I am so happy that I found my new favorite place to search for scholarships! By using ScholarshipsOnline.org, I can search for scholarships at my own pace. My husband has been encouraging me to continue my education, by seeking a degree related to public relations, marketing, etc, and I can't say that I'm not intrigued by the idea. Anyone can use this helpful tool, whether their goal is to head off to an ivy league school, or to take a few classes at a local community college. What I really like about it, is that they take the time to educate parents and perspective students/applicants on what scholarships really are.

ScholarshipsOnline.org offers a helpful list of 100 scholarship tips, such as: 

Plan ahead.

Don't wait until your Senior year of high school.

How to take advantage of high school, local and government resources, etc.

You can search scholarships by category, or deadline and you can even receive news and updates on new scholarship availability in your e-mail inbox!

I am so happy to have found such a wonderful online database of national scholarships and grants. I can't wait to start poking around to see if there are any scholarships available that might help me get back into the classroom!
