I won a scholarship from fastweb referrals from the Soroptomist group. These woman had a banquet and presented me with roses and a great big check! The requirement was for an essay and to be female. I simply wrote a rough draft one evening about my living situation and how it affected me, thought about it awhile finalized it and submitted and won!

Hey I joined fastweb.com when I was a high school senior and actually won 2 one-year scholarships from it. One that i do remember right now is the Simon Youth Foundation scholarship. So, although it seems bleak at times, people like myself do win some scholarships if you stay motivated enough. Good luck!

The info wasn't really all that shocking though. It would have been more aptly entitled 10Things You Must Do When Filling Out A Scholarship Application.

It's funny because more than half the people who commented on this article can't even type out a proper sentence. Good luck with scholarships...

With it being this hard and this competitive to get money for college, it's a wonder anyone goes at all. And any wonder why this generation is getting disgusted with trying to better themselves through education, when they see my generation unable to get or keep jobs even after finishing ours. I keep getting asked if I finished college, I'm having such a hard time finding a JOB these days. I just told Bank of America they could repossess my degree, that's how bad it's gotten.
