One thing many students overlook is the opportunity to apply for scholarships: Scholarships for U.S. Citizens and Eligible Non-citizens & Scholarships for Newly Naturalized American Citizens. Many of these scholarships are not well known, and many times have few to no applicants. We also suggest reaching out to your local Rotary Club and inquiring about any potential locally-sponsored scholarships.
