www.fastweb.com is suppose to get good. But it seem slike everyone goes there. Which causes more competition for the available scholarships.





Have been doing research on this for the past 15 months for my civic club (in the United States). We sponsor a high school based youth club and their members are always in need of scholarship$$.





I have never had any luck with any of the scholarship search companies where you pay a fee. Maybe someone else has?





A lot of corporations want to be seen as ';good neighbors'; in the community. And they need a way to attract young workers. So some of them grant scholarships, usually from $1,500 to $10,000.





When visiting the websites of these companies, on the home page look for something like: ABOUT US or CORP INFO. Click on that, and then look for something like: COMMUNITY or COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT.





From my research: check out:


1. BestBuy (2 scholarships from each store for $1,500 and they enter you at their headquarters for a $10,000 scholarship).





2. Comcast (your high school principal must recommend you for a $1,000 scholarship. They also have paid internship at a limited number of locations nationwide.)





3. Cracker Barrel (www.cbrlgroup.com) for employees, or their children - $1,000





4. Kohls (each store awards $50 and a certificate; then submits their winners to the region. Regional winners receive $1,000 and are submitted to the corporate headquarters. Corporate level winners get a $5,000 scholarship and a $1,000 donation to their favorite charity.)





5. Wal-Mart (www.walmartfoundation.org) Each store awards $1,000 to 2 students at each school in their area. Or if you have been an employee for 12 months, you qualify to apply for a $2,500 scholarship.





6. McDonalds (as Ronald McDonald House Charities at: www.RMHC.ORG) varies by region of the county. But a typical award is $1,000. May be from the corporation or from an association of stores in your area.





Each of these companies have a simple application (1鈥? pages) process.





Good luck.
you could check the college's website and complete the fafsa.
www.fastweb.com


Or the website of the college you plan to attend probably also offers academic scholarships depending on your grades/SAT scpres.
I work as an admissions rep. for a college and we suggest the following websites for scholarships...





www.fastweb.com


www.scholarships.com


www.collegeboard.com


www.fastaid.com





We also caution students not to participate in anything where someone or a website says if you pay a certain amount of $$$ they guarantee they can find you a scholarship....
