Use Your Resources Wisely

Have you tapped all of your resources for scholarship, grant and fellowship ideas? One of the best resources you can find is right in your school and he or she is your high school guidance counselor. Your guidance counselor is a terrific resource for local and regional scholarship programs that may not be publicized online or in the big national scholarship books. Not only do they know the dirt on local college funding, they are an invaluable resource for recommendations, other popular and little known scholarship programs and other resources that can help you get into your school of choice and pay for it! Maybe you haven't spent a lot of time with them at this point - but now is the time to cultivate a relationship and tap that resource.
