Sallie Mae Scholarship Information
College scholarships are financial aid for college that you can apply for through organizations, websites, scholarship tools, and more. Scholarships can be need-based, merit-based, or based on things like your hobbies, field of study, ethnicity, religion, and more. You don’t need to be number one in your class or an all-star athlete to get free money for college. Most importantly, all scholarships are free scholarships, which means free money to help you pay for college.
Scholarship Guidance was created in 2011 to help students find scholarship opportunities for the upcoming school year. Our scholarship database is used by high schools and post-secondary schools across the nation. Scholarship Guidance believes in supporting the open source community by ensuring our scholarship resources are always provided free of charge. Students, Counselors and Parents enjoy lifetime free access to all of our resources, regardless of year of study or school affiliation.
