10+ College Scholarships You Can Apply for Today
The more you apply for, the better your odds are of winning!
Let's make this even simpler by answering one of the most asked questions about scholarships: timing.

When should I apply for scholarships?

Most students want to know when they should start applying for scholarships. The best answer is TODAY! Students can sign up for Fastweb at the age of 16 and can start accumulating scholarships to help pay for school, years before even beginning the college application process. Here's the main takeaway: the earlier you begin applying, the more scholarships you'll have a shot at being considered for and have time to win. Apply for one or however many of the scholarships below you qualify for! And applying for scholarships shouldn’t end after high school. College students should apply for scholarships each year, too! Remember, the more you apply for, the better your odds are of winning a scholarship. Take a break from social media and set a goal to apply for a few scholarships weekly.
