Factors that play a role in being selected:
Having a well rounded background, that would mean community service hours, good relationship with peers and teachers, good grades (B average or more)
Great references from people who know you and your skills outside of your family
Applying and turning in your applications on time

Hello Juan: Starting your scholarship search early is a very smart thing to do; the earlier the better. Here are some factors that help in the scholarship selection.

*Answer optional questions

*Search offline

*Apply to every scholarship

*Apply to the small scholarships

*Maintain a professional online presence

TIP: Don't forget to say "thank you" to the scholarship provider when you win.  :)
