Adversity Scholarships?

Does anyone know of any scholarships where overcoming adversity/unusual hurdles plays a factor?
Or generally any essay based scholarships... I'm freaking out because apparently a lot of them are already closed (I had no idea they started that early).
I'll be a senior in the fall.
