How much information is enough for a scholarship?

Question

While searching for scholarships online, I feel like I reveal too much having to enter my personal details - name, date of birth, house address... - into forms online. You know, as much as I may want to trust, anyone may have access to that information (never underestimate hackers).

But then, I m the one who needs the financial aid...

Answer 1

Im not sure..but i want to find out too..

Answer 2

All the scholarships my daughter won were done through snail mail.  I think most legitimate scholarhips are done through the mail.  I might be mistaken, but I would be hard pressed to give out my personal info online.
