Scholarships, grants, and financial aid
are available to students in many forms.
The scholarships listed on this page are all guaranteed.

By guaranteed scholarships, we mean those which are unlimited in number, and require no interview, essay, portfolio, audition, competition or other "secondary" requirement. Just meet the criteria listed, adhere to the application deadlines set by the individual colleges and universities, gain admission, enroll, and receive your scholarship or scholarships. Remember that, in many cases, the scholarships are mutually exclusive...you will generally receive the largest scholarship or grant for which you qualify.

And, generally, you will have to meet some minimum requirements to renew and retain any scholarships and grants awarded to you.

To avoid disappointment and/or misunderstandings, please contact any of the colleges and universities below in which you are interested, to be certain you are aware of initial application deadlines and the requirements for renewal.

Also, please be aware that many institutions listed below offer grants, financial aid, and awards other than those listed. We have only listed those meeting our definition of "guaranteed".
