<p>I've been checking out various scholarship sites and I was wondering once a person enters college are there any good scholarships out there for us that are not financial need based.
If anyone knows any scholarships please let me know. Thanks.</p>
<p>Substantial merit aid is only given as an inducement to attend. Once you are in, you "have what you got". Awards for performance are usually limited to replacing loans with grants.</p>
<p>You have your maximum leverage as a high school senior choosing among many schools.</p>
<p>Usually only need based aid is available to transfers. </p>
<p>The above has been my families' and friends' experience.</p>
