[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have begun keeping a list over the past couple of years that the school counselor and other websites have provided. What I have found is - a lot of work for little pay off. Everyone says focus on local scholarships but a lot of the local scholarships require and essay, references for $500, $1000, $1500. That's fine if you are only applying for one or two scholarships. But if you really need them to help pay for school, focus only on those that offer a least $5K [/quote] Sure, but even a summer job is only going to get you a few thousand. [b]So a few hours on an essay can equal a whole summer of work[/b].[/quote] Fuzzy math. You have to apply to many many many which means you have to write many many many essays (even if you try to reuse them). And the chance of getting one is very small. [/quote]
