What’s Needed on a Scholarship Application?

April 22, 2010 - PRLog -- Usually, these are pretty standard questions. You’ll be asked who you are, where you live, what school you attend and what grade level you’re currently in. The form will also touch on personal questions. This is where the form can get a little tricky.

Hector Milla Editor of the "Free Scholarships And Grants" website -- http://www.FreeScholarshipsAndGrants.org/free-online-scholarships-money -- pointed out;


“…So before you fill out the scholarship application, take a separate piece of paper and take some time to think over your answers. Usually the first response that pops into your head can be improved on…”

But whatever you do, do not talk in a lofty manner that’s not how you speak. While you do want to impress the committee, you do not want to a high school student writing like a sixty year old either. It’s understandable to feel nervous, but you have to be real.

Standard on every scholarship application, you will find a section asking about income. That is to determine who is eligible for the money and who isn’t. Most forms will require you to fill out a FAFSA as part of their financial aid process.

“…You may also be asked for your GPA and you may have to write an essay about yourself and why you need the scholarship. Take care to submit writing that is clear of spelling and grammar mistakes and double check the application before you send it in. Unanswered portions that you’ve missed will only delay the application…” added H. Milla.
