  2. Thanks for sharing some specific scholarships that are available. The big issue I find with students is that there are so many scholarships out there, each with its own requirements, that they get overwhelmed and do nothing. I recommend using scholarship search sites such as www.fastweb.com and www.collegeanswer.com/index.jsp which narrow the choices from thousands to a few dozen.
