Even if you don't think your family is qualified, you must
apply for financial aid. For some scholarships, even
though the scholarship may not be need-based, the
scholarship applicant must have applied for federal
financial aid for consideration.
If a student is planning to attend a small college, there
may not be a large amount of help available with getting
outside scholarship information. Try visiting the websites
of large universities and looking in the financial aid
office's webpages. Often large universities will post
information on national or regional scholarship programs
on their websites. Also large universities often post tips
on applying for aid and scholarships.
