Can I apply for outside scholarships (or any scholarship) after my F-1 visa has already been issued?

@thumper1 I am still doing my research about where all I will (and how to) apply. Not decided yet.

  1. There are a few scholarships which have June deadlines. If I can meet them in a few days, well and good. If not, then as I said earlier, I will apply for the next year. At least I won't be late for that time, right?
  2. I have read of scholarships which are meant for international students who want to study in the US. I mean, there's even a website called internationalscholarships.com which lets you search those kind of scholarships. But I will still have to find out if these scholarships are legit and if they give certain nationalities a higher priority (including Americans), so you are still a little bit right about that US citizen thing.

By the way, this comment is making me sound so sure LOL. I haven’t reached a decision, and I may have to take frequent trips to College Confidential. :stuck_out_tongue:
