Late College Scholarships for College Expenses?

I'm still looking for scholarships to help pay for college, even though deadlines are fast approaching. Are there any legitimate options for 'late' scholarships meant to cover college expenses? Could really use the financial help at this point.

Absolutely, you can still find scholarships throughout the year! Many scholarships are offered on a rolling basis and others have deadlines later in the academic school year.

One scholarship with a late deadline is the Courage to Grow Scholarship which is for juniors and seniors in high school and college students with at least a 2.5 GPA. A new winner is selected each month.

Another option is the ABPA Harrington-Arthur Scholarship, which students can apply for by writing an essay on backflow prevention. The deadline is usually in late January, and the scholarship awards $1,500.

Appily, formerly known as Cappex, is another great resource, as it is a scholarship database where you can search for scholarships and filter by deadline, making it easier to find those scholarships that are accepting applications throughout the year.

Also note, it's not just national scholarships you should be considering. Many local and state scholarships have less competition and can still provide significant financial assistance.

Just remember, when applying for scholarships, avoid any that ask for an application fee or promise guaranteed results. These are often signs of scams. Additionally, keep track of each scholarship's specific deadlines, requirements, and application process to ensure that you're submitting the best application possible. Best of luck!
