Scream Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Don't those scholarships have certain requirements? I would say yes since there's a tab there that says "Not Eligible". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Don't those scholarships have certain requirements? Most are extremely loose, for instance I got one awhile back for writing an essay on why I like potatoes, and it was sent to an idaho potato farm and they gave me a $5000 scholarship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbon Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Yeah... You can find scholarships for almost anything these days. When I was searching around for scholarships I'd say there were (for at least my area) MORE scholarships that had ALMOST nothing to do with how good your grades are, but other things like: Do your parents work for (just an example in my area) the ministry of children and family developement. If so, write us a short essay and we'll give you $500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60Seconds Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 If only I knew of these when I was going to college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dav3Schneider Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 I don't understand. Are people just stupid? You state that you're most likely going to UCF in the Fall, yet people still are suggesting schools you should go to when it's far too late to apply. Also don't assume that most of the people are out of the house or in college, we have fa****s like Prius who are mouthbreathers that will live in the basement for the rest of their lives. I'd suggest getting a job before anything else. Your first semester don't look too hard for a job, you want to be familiar with you class schedule, the campus in general, and meeting people before you cross out 20 hours a week for work. It's very important to know what the university as a whole expects from its students. Greatest suggestion in this thread. Thanks man. Also, I don't need money, I am getting paid 2K a month to go to college with housing paid for. If you do not think that is a lot, I am one of the biggest money savers out there and have lived off barely 1k for the last 2 semesters. So I really have no need to be needing scholarships. I do like the college suggestion when it comes to california, reason for that is that I want to move there or Europe after I am done with my graduate program. I am graduating with my undergrad this weekend, well kinda I need to test out of a computer concepts class that is required, but besides that I really was looking for graduate programs for school. Another thing that I do have to admit is I am not the smartest students. I am a B student. I am horrible with test anxiety, and suck at english. Another thing is I made a 24 on the ACT, yes I know it is bad but I have more common sense smarts in my field. I really just need to find something to do for the summer, I am personally thinking of working for another web design firm for the summer and do graphic design again, but I really would rather take it off since I am about to graduate. I do thank you guys for the suggestions though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How exactly are you getting a stipend freshman year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dav3Schneider Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 How exactly are you getting a stipend freshman year? GI Bill from Mom. All tuition paid for, 500$ a month for books, and 2K$ a month for housing and allowance. I graduate with my AA Sunday btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
