There are multiple sources available for scholarships and many different search engines made specifically for searching for these funds. Caution should be used when using websites that ask for personal information and/or payments. Remember to never give your social security number to one of these websites. Listed below are scholarships I have found. Keep in mind that there are many other scholarships available that may not be included on this list. I do suggest that you look at scholarships that are available at the college you are interested in attending.
