This page focuses on scholarships. A second
page on scholarships continues our listing of scholarship
resources online. For a broader discussion of financial aid,
go to our Financial Aid

financial aid calculators, an EFC (Expected Family Contribution)
Estimator, financial aid office pages of universities, a
bibliography of financial aid resource materials, a glossary of
financial aid terminology, and financial aid FAQ (Frequently Asked

ScholarshipExperts.com is a fee-based service. Generally, you should be
cautious about paying fees for scholarship searches because some
of those services have been found to be scams (see link in right
column under Special Note). However, we believe
ScholarshipExperts is very good service. We suggest you
visit their site and read their About Us page; it provides
a good explanation of some negative circumstances (privacy issues)
concerning free scholarship search services, and how
ScholarshipExperts avoids those issues by charging a fee for their
services.
