firstly, poetry contests are all that are really available to hs freshman. =(

but that's still okay. in fact, the whole idea of you thinking about scholarship money now is great - amazing, actually.

first, poetry contests warning. (i do poetry contests, and this is helpful, because many are fraudulent).

next, here is a site with a list of contests available:

There are very few scholarships available to freshman. However, summer camps and extracurriculars, especially at your age, look VERY good.

*Especially if they deal with what you want to study - writing or even an arts camp.

furthermore, start studying for the ACT/SAT. it seems ridiculous, but i just ended my junior year and i WISH i had had somebody tell me to study early.

***the ACTs and SATs are a great way to get scholarship money.

Since you're only in your freshman year, a few SAT words a day - maybe 2 or 3 - would be beneficial to the SAT. For the ACT, maybe buy a practice book - usually cheap, about $10 - and do exercises or reviews about once a week. =)

You can always start searching, however. Google scholarships for your college, war histories of your relatives, scholarships for your family's workplaces, contests for writing, scholarships for disabilities, your interests, local scholarships, anything that stands out about you is a possibility to get free cash. =)

furthermore, to back up my 'claim':

this site just gives a good list of scholarships. searching and bookmarking is still planning way ahead the rest!

overall, show an AVID interest in what you want to do in college - and start NOW. =)

good luck!

Hello how are you? What I suggest that you do is use a scholarship search. A scholarship search allows you to create a profile and receive information for all the scholarships that you are eligible to apply for based on your profile description, for example: a scholarship for a student who is an expecting mother. Scholarshipsupport.com actually has 2 free scholarship searches available right now. Also you may be able to find a grant on their site as well. I hope this helps. Good Luck!
