100+ Awesome Scholarships That Will Help You Pay for College

College Scholarships

If applying to college is a nerve-wracking experience, then I’m not sure how to explain the fear and dread involved in paying for it once you get in.

But wait, it gets worse: student loans, anyone?

Before you know it, your excitement about getting into college can be totally trumped by anxiety about how to pay for it.

Luckily, thousands of college scholarships can help you pay for school. Whether you’re in high school, college or even graduate school, you’re likely eligible to win a fair amount of money.

You don’t need to get straight As, be in dire financial straits or go to a ton of activities after school every day to win a scholarship. In some cases, a special skill or interest area — like weird ways to earn or save money — can help you win an award to use toward tuition, housing or even textbooks.

Here’s a list of 100 awesome scholarships to get you started on your search. Application rules and deadlines can change, so be sure to read all of the eligibility requirements on the funding organization’s website before applying.
