State-to-State A-Z List of Legitimate College Scholarships (Part One Includes Alabama to Pennsylvania)
Before You Apply…
Before you go out there searching for scholarships, learn to recognize and differentiate between legitimate opportunities and scams.
-
First off, information about legitimate scholarships will not cost you anything even in the form of membership fees, registration or processing fees, donations or contributions. Be wary of sites that will present itself as a portal for free money for college but won’t tell you anything without processing a registration fee.
-
Genuine scholarships offers will not collect sensitive personal information such as SS number, credit cards or Paypal account. This could be attempts to steal your personal information masquarading as some sort of benefit to you.
-
Government websites do not require you to become a member and will direct you to Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), where you can submit your application online for the need-based aid. Any government site URL will end in .gov.
Federal grants are easier to find because you only need to access the Federal Student Aid website and then proceed to the college or university of your choice to find out if the school participates.
This article provides links to additional forms of aid in the form of scholarships. Both grants and scholarships are gifts you do not have to pay back.
