Comment below what website you have been using to find private scholarships!
Thank you so much for the wonderful and wise tips! I'm certainly going to use them helping my junior navigate the scholarship maze and also the students in my program who I'm helping to reach their college dreams.
Raise me gave me over $3,000 just for entering my grades and extracurriculars. I highly recommend it. No essay required and very simple. Also, it's legit. When I got my offer from the college, it was on there already 👍

Am defiantly going to be looking at these. However does anybody have any recommedations of scholarships for learning disabilities? My high-school experience didn't really result in a high GPA because of mine and the insecurity and struggles that they caused. I feel like I know they exist I'm just not entirely sure as to where. Thank you so much in advance!

Every college offers merit aid based on different factors. You will need to find a school that offers generous merit aid based on test scores and/or GPA. Most schools offer aid based on need. With a combination of need-based aid and merit-based aid, you will find schools that offer close to a full scholarship.

Correct. Highly selective schools only offer need-based aid. But because they use the CSS profile and take into account other factors, their definition of need is different.
Any recommendations for scholarships for dual enrollment students?
@TheScholarshipSystem

Dual enrollment students are still considered high school seniors, so scholarships targeted towards HS seniors will be your best bet. We personally haven't seen many scholarships that are targeted specifically to dual enrollment students. However, some universities/colleges may offer them to those students.
