Scholarships 

Scholarships are generally based on your academic record but are sometimes based upon demonstrated financial need or both. You may need to submit applications, write letters and essays, or be interviewed as part of the scholarship application process, so start your research early. Keep in mind that being eligible for a scholarship doesn't guarantee you'll receive one.
