What are the legitimate scholarship websites?

I've been to MANY websites looking for scholarships but I have not heard back from any of the scholarships that I have applied for. This along with the difficulty associated with using many of these websites (they literally send me in circles without being able to find actual scholarships to apply for sometimes) leads me to believe that these websites aren't legit. This feels like a huge waste of my time as I REALLY need to find and apply for scholarships. #financial-planning #college #college-advice #loans

Thank you comment icon I would start off by looking into local scholarships. A lot of local scholarships never get claimed because people don't know about them and they pretty much get forgotten about. Also try looking into websites like FastWeb, and Cappex. They let you customize your profile and with that information, match you with scholarships that you are a good fit for. Try and apply to as many scholarships as you can, even if the criteria for the scholarship does not exactly match your studies. You never know. After all, scholarship committees are made up of humans who want people to win their scholarships and not robots. Antonio

Hi Patrice! I completely understand what you are going through, as I am dealing with the same thing. Some websites that my counselor gave me that she trusts are unigo.com and niche.com


Good Luck!
