Check specific college web sites for scholarship applications for that school. Most will have one application to submit which will be applied to all of the scholarships they offer.
Be aware of creative scams for financial aid. Some seminars, sites and services may not be legitimate. Quick warning signs are: if they charge a fee, if they offer a "money-back guarantee" and/or request your credit card or bank account information.
$$$$$ FINANCIAL AID $$$$$
Many scholarships will require that you complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) before any financial aid can be awarded. Here is the link to complete the application on line. You will need to look over the application before you begin so that you have the required information (i.e. parents' and your last year's tax return) at hand when you begin the process. Make sure you go to the .gov site. This is a FREEapplication. If you are at a site that charges anything for this, you are at the wrong site!
