Whether you receive a scholarship for the full tuition amount or just a portion, it definitely eases the financial burden. And, it opens up many more school choices you may not have considered otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"scholarships-open-up-a-world-of-support-for-students\"><strong>Scholarships Open Up a World of Support for Students<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Scholarship donors want to see you succeed, which is why they provide scholarships in the first place. On top of the monetary award, many of them provide scholarship winners with support in other ways, such as network contacts, mentorship, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"scholarships-free-up-your-focus\"><strong>Scholarships Free Up Your Focus<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>College can be prohibitively expensive, to say the least. Rather than making ends meet by working during your non-class hours at the local bar and sacrificing sleep and study time, scholarships let you focus on what\u2019s important\u2014your university studies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"and-much-more\"><strong>And much more!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For the full list of benefits of scholarships, check out our post on why scholarships are important and why you should consider applying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-background\"><strong>Related Read<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/benefits-of-scholarships\/\">Why Are Scholarships Important? 7+ Benefits of Scholarships<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"types-of-scholarships\">3. Types of Scholarships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few main categories of scholarships to consider, and each one has its own factors to consider and qualification criteria.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are the basic types of scholarships to think about:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-academic-scholarships\">1. Academic Scholarships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Academic scholarships are awarded to students with a stellar academic record and impressive grades. If you\u2019re at the very top of your class, consider applying for an academic scholarship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-personal-scholarships\">2. Personal Scholarships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Personal scholarships are usually handed out by companies, nonprofit organizations, or individuals, and they focus on goals, beliefs, and accomplishments. Examples of a personal scholarship include a scholarship for community service and scholarships for dedicated volunteer work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-immutable-characteristic-scholarships\">3. Immutable Characteristic Scholarships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Immutable characteristic scholarships are granted to particular groups of students. They\u2019re somewhat niche scholarships, and examples include women in STEM scholarships, minority ethnic group scholarships, and scholarships for people from a certain country.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-athletic-and-activity-scholarships\">4. Athletic and Activity Scholarships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Athletic scholarships are awarded to college students or prospective students based on an impressive level of athletic performance. These can be broken down into the various sports a college supports. Activity scholarships are similar, but awarded to high-level output in areas such as the performing arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-background\"><strong>Related Read<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/types-of-scholarships\/\">18 Types of Scholarships to Explore for Your College Needs<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim\"><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"545\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-1459\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/how-to-get-an-internship-steps.jpg\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/how-to-get-an-internship-steps.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/how-to-get-an-internship-steps-600x273.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/how-to-get-an-internship-steps-1024x465.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/how-to-get-an-internship-steps-500x227.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/how-to-get-an-internship-steps-768x349.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:60px\"><strong>Section 2: Applying for Scholarships<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"where-to-find-scholarships\">4.

Don\u2019t just find one perfect scholarship and put everything you have into applying for it. Rather, find several\u2014even many\u2014scholarships, and apply for them all. You\u2019re bound to get a few replies, at the very least.<\/li><li><strong>Gather documents<\/strong>. Get together all your report cards, grades, awards, academic achievements, important dates, and other key information so you\u2019re ready to apply.<\/li><li><strong>Make a spreadsheet<\/strong>. To keep everything sorted, make a spreadsheet with various columns such as the scholarship name, status of your application, deadline, URL, organization or donor name, and so on.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Write a scholarship essay<\/strong>. This is the most difficult part of many scholarships, though it\u2019s not a requirement for all. Also, proofread like your life depends on it! (We\u2019ll talk about scholarship essays more in a bit.)<\/li><li><strong>Get recommendations<\/strong>. Many scholarship applications request letters of recommendation to be included alongside. Think of the best possible references, such as your high school principal, the general manager of the food bank you volunteered at, etc.<\/li><li><strong>Prepare for an interview<\/strong>. Some scholarships may have an interview process, so it\u2019s important to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/how-to-prepare-for-interview\/\">get ready for the interview<\/a>, just as you would for a job.<\/li><li><strong>Be patient<\/strong>. Try to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/how-to-be-more-patient\/\">avoid feeling impatient<\/a> as you wait for the replies to get to you, even though you\u2019re probably dying to find out. Also, be patient with positive answers, as well.

Many scholarships which require essays usually ask for a variation of the \u201cwhy do you deserve this scholarship essay.\u201d Write this even before you apply, and you can tweak later with more specifics. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/when-to-apply-for-scholarships\/\">Learn the best time to apply for scholarships here<\/a>.<\/li><li><strong>Read carefully<\/strong>. One misstep or oversight when it comes to reading the scholarship application essay instructions, and it\u2019s an immediate fail.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Get personal<\/strong>. Scholarship approval committees are keen on getting to know you. They want to see if you\u2019ll be a great fit, academically and as a part of the student body. So, show them your human side as your write, rather than making it impersonal or just one achievement after another.<\/li><li><strong>Be positive<\/strong>. This was one of our scholarship tips for applying above, but we mean it differently here. Be upbeat in your writing, and don\u2019t invoke self-pity or negativity to try to get their vote\u2014it won\u2019t work.<\/li><li><strong>Be passionate<\/strong>. If you get the chance to choose your own scholarship essay topic, pick one which you are passionate and enthusiastic about. Not only will you likely be better able to speak on that subject, but the enthusiasm will come across in your writing.<\/li><li><strong>Seek advice<\/strong>. You have a variety of people at your disposal, just waiting to help you. For advice, go to your parents, older siblings, teachers, school counselor, and others to make sure you write the best essay for a scholarship imaginable.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Proofread<\/strong>. Just as with not following the instructions, a scholarship essay with grammatical or other errors will likely get discarded immediately.<\/li><li><strong>Repeat<\/strong>. Remember, the more scholarships you apply to, the greater your chances of getting the financial award. So, once you\u2019re finished with this scholarship essay, crack your knuckles and start the next one!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-background\"><strong>Related Read<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwall.io\/blog\/how-to-pay-for-college\/\">How to Pay for College: Ways to Afford University w\/o Expensive Loans<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sending-scholarship-application\">8. Sending in Your Scholarship Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many scholarships these days take place fully online, with forms to fill out, attachments to upload, and a big, colorful button to press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some scholarships, especially those from local or smaller organizations, may require an old school letter or email to apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When crafting one of these emails or scholarship application letters, be formal. Use standard business letter formatting, including when addressing your scholarship application email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be professional in your email (though your scholarship essay attachment can get personal). Make it short and to-the-point, and avoid emoji, abbreviations, and other things which may turn them off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, if you\u2019re sending an email, review your handle. You may have a cute email address from back when you were a kid, such as <em>gamergirlgotcha345@gmail.com<\/em>. However, this doesn\u2019t look professional, so consider using an email alias or creating a new email address to use for professional and academic purposes.
