To get a scholarship, you need to be strategic about what you apply and thorough about how you apply. Do some research into the kinds of scholarships that you qualify for, then make a list of the options that feel like they’re a good fit for you. Once you have that list:

  1. Write the scholarships’ deadlines on your calendar so that you don’t forget to apply on time. 

  2. Read the application instructions carefully. Scholarships might have specific requirements for how to format or submit your application.

  3. Get together any documents you need to apply, like transcripts, letters of recommendation, or essays.

  4. Have a parent, teacher, or friend check your applications. They can give you helpful feedback on your essay and catch mistakes you might not notice on your own. 

  5. Apply according to the instructions on the scholarship’s website. 

  6. After you apply, keep an eye out for any follow-up requests or notifications about your application status. 

  7. If you win, email a thank-you note to the scholarship provider! For more help, join Mos to see the best scholarships for you, apply fast, and get personalized advice throughout the entire financial aid process.
