Help Needed With Scholarships

Paying for College
1

<p>Hey guys :)
I have a huge problem on my hands. I am already receiving a scholarship that the state gives me because of my GPA, but because I am in a computer science major and don't know much about programming and stuff like that I am kind of freaked out about loosing my scholarship because of shortage of GPA or not getting full coverage for the tuition.
So...
I have been researching and applying to scholarships online, writing essays and completing forms that just require your phone number name and address to get an entry for the scholarships, but I have not been successful.
I see a lot of people who get scholarships online and the sum they get is quite frankly amazing. I would like to know if you can provide me a list of some scholarships that either do not have as many applicants or are easier to get than some others. I usually find the scholarships online at FastWeb, and do all kinds of stuff to get them the scholarships, but never win.</p>

<p>I am willing to:
Write essays, Complete long forms online, Print out forms and fax them, Email information, Do volunteer work to get scholarships, pretty much anything. I am in need of about $3000-5000, but even if they are less I would still like for you to post them here because every little bit can help. </p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Are you a freshman? The lottery type of scholarships are just the luck of the draw and the odds are probably slim. Honestly, I think you’d be better off spending your time actually studying and keeping your existing scholarship. Ask for work study or find a part time job or paid internship if you have spare time…at least you’ll have a 100% chance of getting paid that way and, as you say, every bit helps.</p>
