Go to the Financial Aid office and ask about academic scholarships and also check your college library in the college university section to find books about scholarships.

I have probably over ,000 of extra scholarship money from outside things. If I don’t spend them at the end of the year (say they are one time scholarships) does the college give it back to me in a check? What happens to it?

Is this just a myth? It seems that there is a lot of competition for every scholarship. So if anyone knows about these "unclaimed" monies then could you please share? I find it hard to believe that all of these scholarships are just laying around and no one is applying for them.

Financial Aid Scholarships

Posted by Sandra Wright

financial aid scholarships
Why can’t all financial aid scholarships be blind?

I am returning to school and was alarmed at how few scholarships for the “average white person” for lack of a better term. Out of 126 need based scholarships only one was for non-hispanic individuals. Isn’t that about as biased as you can get. And it isn’t just my school, but as with affirmative action shouldn’t this type of requirement go by the wayside and just give scholarships to the most deserving student?

Feeling your pain! In theory, I get it. This is meant to increase diversity and try to help make up for the total exclusion of past admissions policies across the country. BUT as a first generation, older adult, non student of color I feel left in the dust sometimes! The majority (fortuanately not all!) of the scholarships I qualify for, based on being the first in my family to go to college, far from rich-but not poor, nontraditional female, and straight A’s w/several academic honors, I am not allowed to apply for–these hefty scholarships exclude all whites.

My only advise, for what it’s worth, it to seek alumni scholarships and grants or take your chances with the masses and start applying thru fastweb’s scholarship data bank. Best of luck.
