Start Searching Google

You should have already started searching for scholarships on your own. A good place to start exploring is Google.com.

You can enter anything about yourself--major, GPA, ethnic background, birthplace, whether you are tall or short, color of your eyes, disabilities, male/female or even cancer survivor. You'll be amazed on what comes up and that will, invariably, lead to another site.

The class is providing you with the knowledge of how to research and how to keep everything organized so that you won't miss deadlines but, finding scholarships is your responsibility. If you truly are in need of money, you will pursue every resource which is given to you in class. You need to read the book, my website and the blog in order to keep up.

Even though many scholarships will be brought to class, the ultimate responsibility is yours. The scholarships you earn will be proportionate to the amount of time that you devote to research and getting your portfolio put together.
