What would you say is your best advice in general to finding scholarships? I'm having trouble finding where to start and which websites to trust.
A website I've found really helpful is called Going Merry. It's free and easy to use and, once you fill out your profile, immediately matches you to the scholarships you best match. You don't have to earn points or anything to apply, and you can also apply to multiple similar scholarships at once with their bundles. A website that's great for just finding random scholarships, though you have to figure out yourself whether you're eligible or not, is CollegeXpress. Hope that helps!
A great website for scholarships that I use is bold.org
It has many different scholarships to look through and apply to. It is very easy to create a profile and start looking for scholarships! I would suggest applying to scholarships as early as possible and applying to as many as possible.
