Scholarship Resources

Where to start?! There are thousand’s of dollars in financial scholarships “out there” available from educational institutions, corporations and organizations, but where do you start?

Listed below are recommended web addresses that can get you started on the scholarship hunt. You must go looking for the money, it will not come looking for you! An excellent source of information and starting point is the Wheeler Academic Booster Club’s website (listed first). Click on the information under the heading College Planning.

One final point, Beware of scholarship and financial aid search services which charge you a fee or make high pressure promises to get you big money! Check the Federal Trade Commission’s Scholarship Scams website www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/edcams/scholarship . There is a link to this from the Academic Booster Club’s website.

Best of Luck to you on your Scholarship search!
