The idea of applying to scholarships can be overwhelming for students and parents alike.
1. THE SCHOLARSHIP PROCESS TAKES WORK
We all know the adage, “If it was easy then everyone would do it.” Well, the truth is that the scholarship process isn’t always easy.
2. YOUR CHILD CAN APPLY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS UP TO THEIR SENIOR YEAR (IN COLLEGE)
