TRUE STORY: My youngest son won a $750 scholarship because we told everyone we knew that we were searching for scholarships. It was a local scholarship that we had not heard about. A friend told us that he knew of a local scholarship that had received NO applications. He applied for it and WON! There were only two applications for that award. SCORE!!!

“Just had to tell you, we received the first envelope of “payback” and it was on my son’s birthday. Directly as a result of all your guidance and tips in your How to Win College Scholarships ebooks. He was named State of Idaho High School Honoree for the Prudential Spirit of Community Award — all-expense paid trip to DC (for he and I!) and $1,000. I now know the feeling of opening the first envelope — as you said, the hard work does pay off — and the feeling is over the top! Thanks again!” L.B., Idaho
