SCHOLARSHIP TIP: Scholarship deadlines start as early as September of each new school year. While it’s true that a large percentage of scholarship applications are due in the spring, many others are due in the fall and winter months.
Most students are not ready to start applying for scholarships until after the Christmas holidays.
If you start early, your chances of winning those scholarships with early deadlines are automatically greater, since not as many students apply for them.
Don’t wait. Start NOW.
