I have applied to numerous scholarships and received nothing.. Why am I being overlooked so harshly? :( Completing school without financial help from parents is very difficult, and I struggle to get by all the time. My situation is very complicated.. Please let me know if you can help me! Thanks. Britany Hey,

Do they get less chances of getting the scholarships? Thank you! Hi Josh,

Some of the tips are a bit antiquated as the scholarship industry moves forward electronically, but still valid. Hopefully I can win some money now with your advise. As a 30 yr old non traditional student hopefully I have the maturity role cinched up :) Josh-

You're welcome, and I hope the information serves you well. If you're just a sophomore, I expect we'll see you around here often for the next couple of years, right? :) Claudia -- there are definitely biases among scholarship judges. That's for sure. I haven't personally noticed a Northeastern bias, but there are a lot of high-end private schools up there, not to mention a good slice of the population at large, so that could explain part of it. Good luck to you! Hope to see you around GMS often! Josh Hi, Diana — I did read it, just took me forever to respond! You’re welcome, and I hope the information serves you well.

We see the winners are always not from the Northeastern part of the state. Even some colleges are never mention. I think they only give them to certain areas and the rest are being ignored.

I now know that I really failed to complete ALL the sscholarships I applied to. Luckily, I have only applied to 5 scholarships in my entire life. I am only a sophomore so I have time. Thank you, Diana Duong Hello,
