๐Ÿ‘‰ Please reference you found the scholarship on Scholarships That Work, this helps us get more scholarship providers to post here, thanks!

When applying for scholarships, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to provide sensitive personal information like your Social Security Number (SSN). If membership is required to apply, the membership should ALWAYS BE FREE. Basically, NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING. Those are scams! Some scholarships may ask for your address or proof of enrollment. That's fine, but always verify you're actually talking to the scholarship provider and not an imposter. Scams in scholarships are rampant, be careful! When clicking on the button to apply, you will leave Scholarships That Work and go to the application page for that organization outside this site. Scholarships That Work accepts no liability or responsibility as a consequence of any reliance upon information listed here or linked external sites.
