Scholarships

Updated 2/29/2024

Scholarships are useless unless you GET INTO A COLLEGE, so focus on college applications first! The organizations and programs that offer scholarships also know this, so many more will open up their applications later in the year. You can check “Helen’s Google Spreadsheet” to the right to see past timelines for scholarships and ongoing updates for scholarships that have announced when their applications open. Also, keep in mind that you will be eligible for financial aid just by doing your FAFSA, so you don’t need to pay for all your college costs just with scholarships. Sincerely, Helen
