Thanks for sharing this. I’m going to share this with my daughter. She gets help from the school counselor but I’m not sure if she’s doing these things like searching on google….I have a feeling she is but it doesn’t hurt to show this to her just in case. 🙂
Have a great week!

You’re so welcome, Corina! Good luck to you and your daughter in the scholarship process and please let me know if I can do anything to help. 🙂
Way to bust through the student debt problem, Monica. So happy your son graduated debt free. What an awesome way to start a young career.
Thanks so much, Molly! I’m so proud of him. He’s getting married next summer and still has no debt. My middle son won a ton of scholarships too and is now a senior in college.
Good tips! Always good to find useful but quick tasks I think – makes getting things done feel less overwhelming.
Right, baby steps! Thank you!
