Scholarships And You

By Jon Steven


Applying to attend college can be an intimidating experience. Facing college expenses can be downright terrifying. However, help is available and easy to access for anyone with the determination to seek it out. If you are still a high school student, there are many ways in which you can access funds to help you pay for your college education.

The first and most obvious step is to speak with your high school guidance counselor. He or she is an expert in the various scholarship and grant opportunities that are available to you, and the counselor can easily direct you toward scholarship applications for which you are eligible. Guidance counselors can also assist you in preparing for any interviews the scholarships may require, as well as getting good recommendations from your teachers.

You simply invest the time and dedication to apply and then reap a college education and a brighter future for yourself and your children.

One of the most overlooked channels of information about college scholarships is every adult around you. Members of your family may be in organizations that provide scholarships; they may also be employed by companies that sponsor students to attend college. Don't be hesitant to ask! Communities are always proud to see one of their own students achieve success and will do everything in their power to help. Make phone calls to the employers, churches and organizations in your area - you will be amazed at the different avenues available to you.

Applying for scholarships is not difficult, but the process does take time and some patience. With perseverance, you can find the necessary financial resources to help you attain the college education of your dreams.
