12 Sites To Kick Off Your Scholarship Search by EdwinKennedy: 4:42am On May 20, 2023
Through these sites, students can begin to tap into the billions of dollars in scholarship money awarded each year.

If you’re hoping to fund some, or all, of your college career with scholarships, you’re in luck: There are billions of dollars in scholarship and grant money awarded each year.

You don’t need to be a valedictorian or football star to win scholarship money – there are scholarships for all types of students. But you do need to put some effort into your search.

“What I find is that the students who are most successful – they treat this almost like a mini job,” says Kim Stezala, author of "Scholarships 101: The Real-World Guide to Getting Cash for College."

“They are looking at multiple sites. They are entering profiles on different sites. They’re assessing, ‘Is this a good match? Is there too much competition? Do I have a good chance of winning?’”

Stezala recommends picking just two sites to start, then expanding your search if you don’t find what you’re looking for. Here are 10 sites to choose from to get started.

Federal Student Aid: This is the largest source of financial aid in the United States. By filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), you can determine your eligibility for federal grants, loans, and work-study programs.

Scholarships.com: This website has a database of over 3.7 million scholarships worth more than $19 billion. You can search for scholarships based on your interests, skills, and qualifications.

Fastweb: Fastweb is one of the largest scholarship search engines, with a database of over 1.5 million scholarships worth more than $3.4 billion. You can create a profile and receive personalized scholarship recommendations.

College Board: The College Board's scholarship search tool has a database of more than 2,300 sources of financial aid worth over $6 billion. You can search for scholarships based on your GPA, test scores, and other criteria.

CHED Scholarship: For students in the Philippines, CHED Scholarship provides financial assistance to qualified students who want to pursue higher education. The program offers different types of scholarships for students in various fields of study.

UNIGO: UNIGO provides a comprehensive list of scholarships available to high school, college, and graduate students. You can search for scholarships based on your interests, skills, and qualifications.

Phil Edukasyon: Phil Edukasyon is an online platform that provides information about scholarships, grants, and other financial assistance programs for Filipino students. They also offer tips and resources to help students succeed in their academic pursuits.

CareerOneStop: Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, CareerOneStop aims to give people the resources, assessments, and advice necessary to find jobs. The website also features a database of over 8,000 scholarships for undergraduate, graduate, vocational, and professional development programs. Users can search for scholarships, fellowships, grants, prizes, and loans.

OWWA Scholarship: Another scholarship program in the Philippines is the OWWA Scholarship, which provides financial assistance to the dependents of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). The scholarship covers tuition and other school fees for the qualified beneficiaries.

Niche: Niche provides a database of over $50 billion in scholarships. You can search for scholarships based on your interests, skills, and qualifications.

Philippines Scholarships 2023: For students in the Philippines, Scholarshipsph.com is an excellent resource for finding scholarship opportunities. The site provides a comprehensive list of available scholarships, including government-funded scholarships, private scholarships, and international scholarships.

Cappex: A platform that connects students to colleges, Cappex helps students find colleges and search for scholarships and financial aid opportunities. On this site, you can search for scholarships by demographic. These include scholarships for women, Black students, Hispanic students, LGBTQ+ students, and first-generation students.

But the process for giving out scholarship money varies from school to school. You should also check the department of the major you’re considering, which may have its own scholarships and process for awarding them.

"Go to the college’s website, type in the word 'scholarships' and see what process the college will be using to give out their scholarship opportunities,” Hartley says.
