SEARCH ENGINES

There are ways to find scholarships.  If you have limited time to do the searching and you want the best return on your investment of time, the local organizations that always give out scholarships to our Pasco kids are the best way to go, but many of them don’t come out until later in the school year, so start now with the search engines.  The list below is a list of reputable search engines.  This means that you register on their site and fill out the questions they ask you, and they will send you emails for any scholarships that seem to fit your profile.  CREATE A NEW EMAIL ACCOUNT JUST FOR SCHOLARSHIP PURPOSES.  YOU WILL GET LOTS OF EMAILS!

You should be checking our district website shown below, for the scholarship list they have created.  Some may be the same as you got through your search engine sites, but there will be many on our district site that are not on the lists from the search engines.
