FAQS

  • What’s the difference between grants, scholarships, and loans?

    Grants and scholarships are money that you don’t have to pay back. Loans, you do.

  • When should I start applying for scholarships?

    No later than the beginning of your high school senior year, or when you’ve been accepted into a college or university – whichever comes first.

  • Are scholarships always based on academic achievement?

    No, although all students need to make passing grades. Many scholarships are needs based; others consider GPAs or ACT/SAT scores; and others give scholarships just because you meet their criteria and apply.

  • Will receiving scholarships affect my financial aid package?

    It’s possible. But it’s better to accept as much free money as you’re awarded.

  • Are there scholarships for international students?

    Yes. The options are fewer, but they do exist.

  • Is it easy to get scholarships? And is it realistic?

    No, it's not easy. If it was, everybody would get them. But it's very realistic if you commit your energy, your effort, your time, and if you are disciplined.
