We found that a lot of the local scholarship had to be used instate. They were great to offer them, but since one daughter was going OOS she was immediately excluded. She didn’t apply to any, but a hs classmate won several (art, essay, music). They weren’t large amount, but all money helps.
You need to do some self sorting. Are you going instate? Do you have a special talent (music, art, essay writing) because a lot of the local scholarships are really prizes for talent. Do you already know your major? Credit Unions sometimes have scholarships for business majors, there are often scholarships for engineers or nurses. We had a local paper that announced a lot of the competition, like if a local photographer had a prize or the American Legion or Elks club.
Also check with the college you are going to. We found there were some local scholarships for students at colleges in that county or for specific colleges. The FA office may have a list or it may be on the website.
It takes some digging.
