Why Most Job Searches Fail… Part 2 by Wumivic(m): 12:39pm On Jul 09, 2013
Last week we discussed five types of scholarships. This week we will conclude it by explaining the remaining five

There are:

6. Institutional Scholarships
7. Creative Scholarships
8. Unusual Scholarships
9. Community Service Scholarships
10. General Scholarships


6. Institutional Scholarships
These are scholarships awarded by a specific college or university (institution) to a student planning to attend that institution.

7. Creative Scholarships
For those artistic at heart, there are creative scholarships available to help you pursue your passion. Art scholarships, music scholarships and even dance scholarships usually involve an audition of some sort, and can help you get through art school or an art program at a university. Regardless of your creative field, you can rest assured that there is a scholarship out there just for you. However, it is your job to find it and to apply!

8. Unusual Scholarships
Unusual scholarships are a lot of fun and a great way to be creative and get some cash while you’re at it. They are typically sponsored by private companies and are meant to be fun. For instance, there is a scholarship available for left-handed students and one for who can create the best prom dress out of duct tape. Even though there aren’t very many of these off-beat scholarships each year, there are enough to attract significant attention from potential applicants, schools and even the media. Because of this, they may be a bit competitive. However, if you have a killer idea, go for it!

9. Community Service Scholarships
Community service scholarships are fantastic for those that love to give to others and give back to their communities. If you already perform a lot of community service, then a scholarship in this vein may be perfect for you. There is also the Federal Work Study program, which awards a percentage of their funding to students performing community service activities. It may be a viable option for you if you were planning on using work-study as a means of paying for universities anyway.

10. General Scholarships
These are other scholarships which are awarded for a variety of reasons that do not fall into one of the above categories. These may be for reasons of the student’s association with the objectives of the sponsoring organisation. For example, some corporations give scholarships to their employees’ children or based upon academic success.

You can now proceed to secure that scholarship that fit you.

I wish you success…
