<p>Could someone please post any pointers to scholarships that are available to
students who will be rising sophomores? </p>
<p>Do students apply to these earlier during their freshman year (February ish)
or do they do it later?</p>
<p>(I am a prefrosh just planning ahead)</p>

<p>Non-prefrosh scholarships (non-college specific) anyone?</p>
<p>This is a great topic for a thread.</p>
<p>I second the BUMP!!</p>
<p>As scarce as hens teeth I'm afraid.</p>
<p>Good question, I'd like to know too.</p>
<p>Make friends with the FA Office and keep inquiring about NEW scholarships. Our students were just given information about a brand new scholarship that wil pay up to 100% of the cost of attendance (including room and board). It's an outside scholarship that just started accepting applications in December 2007. My students got a jump on the funding because the scholarship committee contacted me for information on how to set up the applications. FAO's always know about these new scholarship opprotunities before the general public.</p>
