Smart students not only do academic homework, but they also do scholarship homework. While many students only rely on internet scholarship search engines or FAFSA results, smart students know where to find scholarships in other locations.

Scholarships Listed at the Local High School

In order to get their scholarship information to many students, companies and organizations rely on high schools to distribute information to students. This information is given to school counselors and/or career and college resource centers. School personnel will gather these scholarship opportunities and create a master list. Some schools will provide the information on paper form or online on the school's website.

Scholarships Listed at Other High Schools

Virtually every high school receives information on scholarship opportunities. Looking at other school's websites for scholarship information will expose students to additional opportunities. Students can benefit from looking at sites from other high schools in other states. Larger high schools usually have extensive scholarship resource lists. Also, private high schools tend to have a more complete listing of scholarships than most high schools.
