<p>Thank you so, so much for these! Great resource. I can’t always find appropriate scholarships on FastWeb, so this is great.</p>

7

<p>Does anyone know of any scholarships fro Sophomore year? Everything I see seems to be for incoming Freshmen.</p>

8

<p>Wow, thank you so much!!! This is really helpful!</p>

<p>Sure thing, guys.</p>

<p>SVMMom, College Confidential has a page of links to scholarships and scholarship searches. I would browse through these links, specifically the searches, and just enter “Current Undergraduate” or “Sophomore Year” where applicable. Scholarship searches will always ask you what year you want the scholarship for.</p>

<p>Here’s the link to the CC scholarship resource page: [Financial</a> Aid: Scholarship Search](<a href=“http://www.collegeconfidential.com/financial_aid/scholarship_search.htm]Financial”>http://www.collegeconfidential.com/financial_aid/scholarship_search.htm)</p>

<p>A little bit of a commercial theme today, which leads me to this disclaimer: </p>

<p>I do not, in any way, represent or receive any compensation from any of these companies in exchange for listing their scholarships in this thread. I am merely continuing to list scholarships I have found from various sources across the web for the benefit of the members in this College Confidential community.</p>

<p>Great find, yan19454! Every scholarship helps. If anyone else knows of good scholarships like the ones above, please share.</p>

<p>Here’s one: [List</a> of College Scholarships for High School Students](<a href=“http://www.discusawards.com/list-of-scholarships]List”>http://www.discusawards.com/list-of-scholarships)</p>

<p>It’s a long list of scholarships for high school students. It’s updated pretty frequently, and it clearly spells out who is eligible for each scholarship and when the deadline for each scholarship is.</p>

<p>But it looks like the deadline for some of the scholarships is today, so you may want to apply for those before you celebrate the new decade.</p>

<p>Happy New Year, College Confidential Community!</p>
