Start scholarship search early<br />
Barbara Martin<br />
Employment Readiness Program<br />
It’s never too late to start searching for<br />
college scholarships. It’s also never too<br />
early. By starting the scholarship search<br />
early, students can better position themselves<br />
for scholarship success and ultimately<br />
make it easier to afford the college<br />
of their choice.<br />
An easy way to discover educational<br />
assistance is by taking advantage of free<br />
online scholarship searches. Military<br />
spouses and family members can visit<br />
www.military.com and click on<br />
“Scholarship Finder.” You can set up a<br />
profile to meet specific needs and receive<br />
daily e-mails from various sources.<br />
Other helpful scholarship finder Web<br />
sites are: CareerInfoNet: www.careerinfonet.org<br />
(Click on Scholarship<br />
Search)and FastWeb www.fastweb.com<br />
(Click on Scholarship Search).<br />
Remember, not applying for scholar-<br />
ships is like turning down free money. Do<br />
not limit yourself to only military scholarships.<br />
You qualify for non-military related<br />
scholarships, too.<br />
The Educational Opportunity Centers<br />
at Midlands Technical College (822-3749)<br />
or the University of SC (777-5127) provide<br />
free assistance. You don’t have to<br />
attend these institutions to receive help.<br />
