<p>I'm a half-asian female senior who got accepted to EmoryU, LehighU, BU, and Dickinson...my dad just got laid off and we did not receive NEARLY enough aid. I'm looking for a scholarship opportunity that would be around 5,000-10,000 or more that is still accepting applications. I'm a very good writer and heavily involved in community service and leadership in my school. Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Have you filed FAFSA? Do this immediately if you have not. If you have, you need to update with the news that your Dad got laid off. This should make you qualify for financial need unless you Mom makes a ton of money or your family is sitting on a ton of assets.</p>
