Homeschoolers and Scholarships

Students who have been homeschooled should not be afraid to apply for scholarships. The best thing to do is join a well-researched online scholarship search company and create an online profile to find out what scholarships you are eligible for. When applying for scholarships, be sure to highlight community service achievements and programs you have participated in.

The Home Schooler's College Guide is a great book that gives great tips on applying for and getting traditional scholarships. Some home school associations, such as the Home School Foundation, offer scholarships for its members.
