apply for scholarships

I recommend everyone go to it. You don’t have to go through billions of advertisements for colleges just to look at one scholarship you are interest in. This actually matches you with scholarships that are very accurate to what you need to apply for.

Here it is.

Best of luck to everyone out there :)

I forgot to write about this, last semester I won a $2000 scholarship for this school year.

Every year our school runs what is called Merits. People who choose to participate, exhibit their recent work in their associated fields; mine being graphic design.

A panel of faculty judges selects students who’s work shows the greatest skill, dedication, and promise. Thus, I spent many early mornings and late nights in preparation for this opportunity. That hard work really paid off.

I was selected, as well as a fellow designer, who is also quite good, to achieve the design merit scholarship. I know she and I both appreciate the additional finances. It will help enable me to study in Japan.

This year I will try and enter again, even though I will be away from the country. This one is particularly important because the award will be $10,000, as it is for students going into their senior year. A friend of mine won it last year and she deserved it more than anyone.

Although, I’ve never seen anyone win a merit scholarship when they were studying abroad. That means I will have to try twice as hard; and have a helpful friend assist me back in the states.

I’ll do my best.

I’d rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery.

well it seems to be more of a sweepstakes thing, but hey it’s better than nothing!

hopefully i can try to do an essay one either tonight or tomorrow!

I need to try and do one every other day if I want to go to university!

Do your fasfa!

Here’s something I copied from an e-mail I got from them:

If you choose to go to the FAFSA on the Web site at www.fafsa.ed.gov, select the “Fill Out Your FAFSA” link and enter your identifying information. You will then be given the option to pre-fill your FAFSA with much of your application data from last year.

HOPE THIS HELPS!
You will need your Federal Student Aid PIN to access your 2009-2010 FAFSA on the Web application that is pre-filled.

If you have forgotten your PIN, you can request a duplicate by going to www.pin.ed.gov and selecting “Request A Duplicate PIN.” You may select one of the following delivery methods: view an online display of your PIN; receive an e-mail with your PIN; or receive your PIN by U.S. postal mail. If you select postal mail, you will receive your PIN by mail within 7-10 days after requesting it.

Remember, your PIN gives you access to your personal information on the Web and also allows you to sign student aid documents electronically. To protect the confidentiality of your application data, you should never share your PIN with anyone, even if that person is helping you to complete your FAFSA.

In addition to federal student aid, you may also use the FAFSA to apply for aid from other sources, such as your state or school. Check important state deadlines at www.fafsa.ed.gov under the “Before Beginning a FAFSA” link. Check with your school’s financial aid office for information about school deadlines.

If you have questions about your FAFSA, online help is available at www.fafsa.ed.gov. You can also contact the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243) and a customer service representative can assist you.

HOPE THIS HELPS!
