Start your Scholarship Search Soon! (aka NOW!)

YESS Superstars! 

Now is the time to start your college scholarship search...even if you are a freshman! 


Check out the following search engines to begin. Remember, if you create a log in, keep your user name and password in a secure place! Make a note in your phone or in a google doc connected to your email address. I'd choose 1 or 2 of the following sites where you create a log in. Keep the other sites in mind for your searches though! 


1) Chegg- Scholarships and College Exploration

2) Fastweb - Create and complete a profile for personalized scholarship opportunities!

3) Cappex - Find scholarships, compare colleges and check out your chances for admission

4) Big Future - College Board - This is a great resource for SO MANY parts of your college search including scholarships.

5) YESS Scholarship Resources - Individual scholarships are listed as well as links to scholarship search engines. Bookmark this page and check out all of the additional resources too!

Start by finding scholarships that you are eligible for and be sure to paste the links in to your College Research spreadsheet: Scholarships I'm Eligible For! tab (either saved in your google drive or create one here). Be sure to note the application requirements and start outlines for any required essays. Remember: this process is like a part time job with the potential BIG PAY of your college tuition being covered by scholarships!
