More information about the sources of additional scholarships can be found online and within your local community. Such local resources include your school’s guidance counselor as well as your local public library. You should aggressively seek out and apply for appropriate scholarships, but be aware that some scholarship search services and databases are only accessible by paying a fee. In addition, some services present scholarships that charge an application fee. Ithaca College does not recommend paying for access to scholarship databases or pursuing for any scholarship that charges an application fee.
