What's the best way to earn or receive scholarships and grants in high school?

Concerned about the cost of graduate school #college

Thank you comment icon First, grades will get you the most scholarships of anything, having a 3.5 GPA or a 30 ACT can really help college admissions and your chances of scholarships. But also, join many clubs or sports. Even if you're not phenomenal at these things, you can still put it in when applying for college. Third, a lot of jobs for larger companies actually offer scholarships for working there during your high school years. Finally, pay attention to the colleges that send you a lot of mail or emails, they most likely are desperate and looking for freshman applicants and will often offer you scholarships more eagerly than more restrictive colleges.

Hi!


In high school you should be looking for scholarships for your undergraduate studies. When you're getting ready to graduate from college, then you would look for scholarships or grants for graduate school. Most graduate school programs have multiple grants, scholarships, and other forms of financial aid available as long as you meet their academic requirements.


Most schools offer academic scholarships, so the best thing you can do is concentrate on getting good grades. A lot of organizations also offer scholarships - Scouts, communities, churches, etc. The city where I grew up offered a small scholarship to high school seniors who wrote essays about the impact community sports had in their life.


In addition to searching for scholarships online I would recommend talking to your academic advisor at school - they help students all the time and should know where you can start looking.
