Hi everyone, I’ve been applying to scholarships and haven’t heard from any one of them. I do not know if they are fake or real, but I am taking the time to apply as many as I possibly can. I am going to the University of Arizona and tuition is a little expensive. I am trying to find scholarships. If anyone knows or has recommendations for applying for scholarships, please let me know. Thank You.
I would recommend looking into this company:

They were very helpful in my son getting some very good scholarships and it didn’t cost us anything.
What’s your budget? How much do you need for AZ? If your parents can’t/won’t pay for you to go OOS your only options are to find a school in Michigan that they will pay for.
How much more money do you need? It’s April 24…getting late to get scholarships for the 2020-2021 academic year.
How much do you need to come up with to attend Arizona?
Do you have an affordable option in your home state?
@austinmshauri My parents are supporting me and I did get a scholarship from the university, but it’s still a lot. I want to bring it down so that my parents don’t have to worry and that they’ll still be able to pay for my 2 younger siblings.
@thumper1 I need at least $8,000 because on-campus housing is a lot. I want to be able to pay for it because I don’t want my parents to be worried and work more, so they can pay for my 2 younger siblings. I’m just looking for places for scholarships and I have applied to 23 so far. I haven’t heard from them yet and I don’t know if they are real or not. If they are real and I do get them, then it will be easily accomplished. Thank You.
Is the $5500 Direct Loan part of your college financial aid? If not, that is one way to ease the burden for your parents.
Most of those scholarships are for one year. They have thousands of students applying for funds so it is VERY competitive.
The best scholarships come from the universities themselves.
If you can’t afford the costs, you need to find an affordable university.
@thumper1 Yes it is, but my parents want me to take subsidized loans and not unsubsidized. I did get a work/study and I will be working. Thank you for your response. My family is financially stable to support me, but I want to try to cut the costs for them because they’ll have to pay for my 2 younger siblings for college.
