For more information on how a scholarship can apply to your program, consult the department/organization who hosts the scholarship.

Here are some additional tips:

• Don't be intimidated; you can't be awarded money if you don't apply! Not as many people apply for scholarships as you may think. 
• Apply, apply, apply! Explore multiple scholarship and grant opportunities, and apply for anything you feel you may be eligible for. 
• Use your resources and the campus community. Many faculty and staff may be willing to look over your application and/or written materials.
