There are many sources of scholarships, including colleges and universities, corporations, charities, and professional organizations. Often these are merit driven, awarded for excellent high school grades and high scores on standardized tests such as the ACT and SAT. They can be needs based such as those awarded to lower income students and those with disabilities. Individuals with talents in music and the fine arts may be eligible for scholarship assistance. College departments/majors often have scholarships to offer such as accounting, engineering, architecture, journalism, and the social and behavioral sciences, to name a few. Securing scholarships is like a job in itself; it requires hard work and persistence. At College Consulting with Dr. Bob, you will be guided through the process of navigating and becoming familiar with the many types of scholarships available to students.
