I'm gearing up for college applications and want to make sure I have enough financial aid options. Does anyone know of scholarships specific to high school seniors for 2023? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
When it comes to financial aid, applying for scholarships is a great strategy. Here are some scholarships that are open to high school seniors in 2023:
