Important points to keep in mind when completing scholarship applications are: 

  • Organize and prioritize. To be successful you must determine what you need to apply and when the deadlines are. 
  • Be aware that you need to be able to write about a variety of topics, that may or may not be exciting to you, in a fluid and thoughtful way
    • You must understand yourself well enough to create a compelling portrait of who you are
    • You must understand your audience well enough to be able to position your skills and strengths as deserving of their support.
  • Applying for scholarships takes more work than writing down a list of extracurricular activities
