How to Improve Your Chances of Getting a Scholarship
Summary
Before applying for scholarships, determine your eligibility as a visible minority or an individual with a disability, as many scholarships target these groups. If you don't fall into these categories, other criteria will be considered.1. How Are Scholarships Awarded?
Scholarships don't follow a strict formula, but they often have minimum criteria due to the high volume of applicants compared to available scholarships. Many organizations, including professional societies and charity groups, offer scholarships to students in related fields or special cases, like orphans of former members. Additionally, established schools and universities may have funds for exceptional students with financial needs.
In the U.S., the PSAT/NMSQT test, usually taken in junior year, is a key factor in National Merit Scholarship programs and some private scholarships.
