DD’19 had 4 local scholarships that I had to track down. One needed multiple reminders. If I ever run a scholarship, I will strive to be much more communicative and timely!
I located scholarships, kept track of deadlines, pushed her to get them done, followed up on payment. DD did the applications/essays/interviews/audition. I’m an accountant and paralegal who loves the research and organization and she…does not! But she has the academic, writing, and acting skills that get the money.
I did the FAFSA too, I think she may have sat with me the first time. We don’t get anything from it, so it’s not a huge important thing she needs to know about.
