Four Secrets to Winning Scholarships

Did you know there are methods you can use to increase your odds of winning scholarships? Consider the strategies below as you work to take on the National Scholarship Month challenge:

Set a monthly scholarship application goal.

Apply for these scholarships like it is your job! Tip: Set a daily phone reminder to enter Fastweb’s $1,000 National Scholarship Month Sweepstakes. Creating a plan to apply for scholarships involves self-motivation and discipline, but consistency really can pay off. Fastweb’s $1,000 Scholarship Goal Crusher Sweepstakes winner, Jasmin Little shared this advice: “I have a daily goal to either identify a scholarship I want to apply for or to make progress on one (for example, writing 150 more words on an essay).” Another Fastweb Scholarship Sweepstakes winner, Therese Dy, explained that she applies for one scholarship per week each month.

Apply for scholarships that require an essay.

Many students avoid college scholarship applications that require essays, so you will have less competition.

Do not overlook the $500 scholarships.

Students are drawn to the big scholarships, with large award payouts. Meaning fewer students are applying for $500 scholarships; your odds of winning these scholarships are higher.

Find scholarships that fit your interests.

Scholarship judges notice when an applicant is passionate about a topic or cause. If your interests fit a scholarship, your background and experiences tend to support the scholarship win!
