What is the best way to get scholarships?

I have asked my school and been online to scholarship websites, but I just can't seem to find any good scholarships. Is there a website to help me out or another way to earn money for college? #nomoney #scholarships #help Is there a way to find scholarships for a major or a place I live?

I’m starting college in the fall, and am unsure what I want to major in. What’s the best way to figure out which major is right for me?
