Single Moms Scholarship Strategy

Scholarships are readily available for undergraduate and graduate degrees and vocational programs leading to career starts and changes. Scholarships are not just for the best students. Scholarships can be awarded based on classroom excellence, involvement in extracurricular activities, financial need, desire for achievement, and letters of recommendation. Scholarships are gifts and do not have to be repaid.

Colleges often have scholarship money available to an applicant who has been granted admission. Your next stop should be spending time in the college aid section of your public library. Most libraries will have a number of books about financial aid, including scholarship guides such as the College Board’s Scholarship Handbook.
