Scholarship Tips
Scholarships start in your community. Visit the local high schools
and make connections with the counselors and college advisers. Many
local scholarships can be accessed in the counselor's office or the
college career center.
Do not start with the Internet!!!
Be sure to check the websites of ALL
local high schools. Many times different scholarships will be posted
online. These are available to people in the community, including
homeschoolers.
Another source for information is the college advisers at the local community colleges. Meet with them and ask questions.
Almost all scholarships require community service. Get started now, as early as age 5. Be sure to document your service.
If you have the opportunity to attend a Path to Scholarships®
workshop or leadership academy/camp, it is highly recommended. You will
be guided step-by-step through the scholarship process. (See Links - Services Available and Upcoming Events & Workshops on www.empowermenttodayllc.com)
