What scholarships has your child won? (Brag thread for parents / Ideas for students?)

<p>^^Yes, S1 got a very nice departmental scholarship for his major. It was not highly publicized. There was a small link labeled “scholarships” on his major’s department page.
He clicked on it and found out there was a four year renewable scholarship he could apply for that covered the cost of tution at his state sch. The app. process was very simple, fill out a form,write an essay (short) and send h.s transcript. I wondered how many kids actually applied since it was so easy to miss.</p>

<p>Scour all department homepages that pertain to you and follow links even if they don’t look like much.
S1 ended up getting $18,000 over four years from that little scholarship link.</p>
