When you apply for a scholarship, do you have to attend an interview after getting accepted ?

Great question Juan. I'm sorry no one's answered it yet! Sometimes you do meet the person providing the scholarship to you, but sometimes you don't! Hard to say depending on where you are applying and what they ask of you. For the scholarships I received at my school, I met my Dean(not for an interview) just for a thank you commencement and I wrote a letter to the person who donated for my scholarship.

I thought I'd share a few links to other relevant Q&A on CareerVillage.org that should be super helpful for you to read through in regards to scholarships. I've included tips in the "next steps" section below a list of trustworthy sites you should create accounts on if you haven't already (that have good scholarships where you won't have to interview for winning!). Here are tips that could help you in your preparation of finding and submitting for scholarships:

1. Dedicate a minimum of 1 hour a day for a few weeks to applying for scholarships and it'll go a long way.
2. Be thoughtful about your entries, just doing the bare minimum isn't going to land you any scholarships. It's better to spend more time on each entry to ensure it's well thought out than to rush through to try to enter a bunch. Quality over quantity!!
3. I recommend writing one STELLAR essay. Chances are you'll use it for every scholarship application (potentially only having to make minor edits dependent on what the prompt is). Tell a story that clearly represents who you are and what's important to you. The goal of the essay should be to let the reader in to your life. If you can do that in a genuine and meaningful way you'll be considered, I promise! A couple of ideas: Write about the hardest thing you've had to go through in your life or what makes you so passionate about something. Be sure to include lessons you've learned and what you hope to do with that knowledge/experience later in life.
4. Spend more time finding scholarships that directly pertain to YOU so it cuts down the competition. Look for scholarships in your local community, or that are just for young women, for example. Know what career path you want to pursue? There are probably dozens of scholarship opportunities that are only for students aspiring to follow a specific career path (e.g. STEM, entertainment, sports, design, etc. etc.)
