Scholarship Searches and Opportunities

To apply for A-B scholarships, complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).

Links regarding some additional non-A-B scholarships are available below. Also, throughout the year information on non-A-B scholarships are posted on Campus Cruiser, the College's internal website, under Campus Bookmarks, "Non-A-B Scholarship Opportunities". We suggest you use free scholarship searches on the Internet and caution you to be wary of any off-campus scholarship program that charges a fee, promising thousands of scholarship opportunities. You may receive a huge listing of scholarships for which only very specific groups of students qualify. Often, the money-back guarantee requires that you have applied for all scholarships on their list.
