I'm looking for scholarships outside of my college's offerings, specifically ones that are need-based. Does anyone have experience with any organizations or websites that help in finding these types of scholarships?
Absolutely, there are quite a few resources out there that may help you find need-based scholarships. A few noteworthy options include:
1. Fastweb: Fastweb offers an extensive database of scholarships based on various criteria including need-based, merit-based, student specific, career specific, etc.
2. Scholarships.com: Another comprehensive resource where you can filter scholarships by different categories, including need-based ones.
3. Peterson's: This is a good resource for scholarship searching that also allows you to filter based on your specific needs.
4. Appily: Appily is an online scholarship platform that also includes both need- and merit-based opportunities. It allows you to make a profile and be matched with appropriate scholarships.
