Your first step is to contact the financial aid office at the college or university you want to attend.  That office is your gateway to need-based grants, scholarships, work-study and loans.  Ask for information on applying for financial aid and any deadlines that you have to meet.  Then follow through with their directions ASAP.  Your should also contact the scholarship office on campus for information on merit-based  scholarships (those awarded to students with good grades; and endowed scholarships (those financed by alumni or local corporations).  Once you've done this, you can start looking at alternative sources of funding.  Private/corporate scholarships and grants are indexed in a variety of places (on-line and in books at your local public library).  You might also check with your or your parents' employer  to see if there are any scholarships available.  Also  check with your church, synagogue or diocese; local fraternal organization (Lion's Club, Shriner's, Optimist's, Rotary Club); and if you belong to a youth group (boy scouts, girl scouts, etc.) or athletic team, check with the sponsor to see if scholarships are available.

You don't just sign up for scholarships, you apply for them.  Go to your library or guidance counselor and ask to see a book on the scholarships available.  Determine what the requirements are, and be sure the student works to meet the requirements.  I don't know any scholarships that will award them before they are to be used, ie you wont get scholarships for a 10th grader to use in college, but the student can certainly work to meet requirements for various scholarships for later use.  Also look at the colleges he or she wants to attend, and see what they are interested in.  There may be low profile sports that will make the student more interesting and there may be scholarship money available through sports... Do your research, and ask colleges what kind of benefits package the student might be eligible for.

You want College Board.\nThey have a free scholarship search, and info about schools, as well as planning guides.  It is as close as you can get to a one-stop shop for all your school prep needs. It is a good idea to talk to your school's counslor, but do not count on them to do all the work for you.  Good luck! \nTry this:\nhttp://www.collegeboard.com/student/pay/\nthis is the scholarship page, but don't forget to check out the other stuff too.

Take your time at figuring that out. Life experience will let you in on that. Have you tried different types of volunteer work? Church groups can expose you to different stuff also and both look great on a scholarship app. Check into those things and maybe it will help. Give yourself time to be a kid and grow up. You only have that once and you never get it back when it is gone.

A lot of scholarship now requires that students write essays, but some look at your financial situation. Check out fastweb.com if you haven't. Fastweb is good for finding scholarships. It tells you descriptions of what you need to do to apply.

Apply for financial aid is a good start.\n    1. In the application, write a good essay.\n    2. They won't give you a good scholarship unless you need one. So you better be poor or middle income.\n    3. You will also need your parent's salary records, your savings account details and all that financial banking stuff.\n    4. A good High school transcript. from 3.5 to 4.0 GPA for most colleges. \n    5. Interesting and unusual extra activities.\n\nAnd check the additional information on your college's website. The ones I gave are popular ones.\n\nPlus if you are applying for a top college like Harvard, Princeton, MIT ect. you will have a good chance of getting it. Those college have a big budget for financial aid. It's the more poor colleges that have an intense competition for the money.

You should be looking at a variety of sources to seek outside scholarship help. I know you are looking for one source but you could miss out on some scholarships that might not be listed on that particular website because they do not have a web page devoted to it. Also, it takes time once you apply for consideration for a scholarship to hear back from them.\n\nFirst, check with the financial aid office and website because they list private scholarships from outside sources such as organizations and companies. Also, sometimes your major's website might list some scholarships.\n\nSecond, check with your local library for a scholarship listing book. There are scholarships out there that are not listed on the web.\n\nThird, check with your employer or your parents's employers to see if they offer a scholarship program or help for college students.\n\nFinally, join several free scholarship search websites because a scholarship might be listed with one website but not another. Most are updated on a regular basis. Most offer a customized search.\n\nGood luck!

There is no such thing as guaranteed scholarship.  Start with federal grants and state grants (filing a FAFSA before March should take care of that), and look at the various scholarships your college offers to determine if you are eligible to apply for any of them.  Also look at outside scholarships, your financial aid office should have a list.  Apply for everything you are eligible to apply and keep your fingers crossed.
