SCHOLARSHIPS PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE, IN MEETING THE COST OF COLLEGE. AND, WITH NOVEMBER BEING "NATIONAL COLLEGE-SCHOLARSHIP MONTH", NOW'S THE TIME FOR BOTH STUDENTS AND FAMILIES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE, AND APPLY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS--AS DEADLINES QUICKLY APPROACH. FREE RESOURCES--LIKE "SCHOLARSHIP SEARCH" BY "SALLIE MAE"--TAKE THE LEGWORK OUT OF THE SEARCH, AND ULTIMATELY HELP REDUCE OUT-OF-POCKET COLLEGE-COSTS. "SCHOLARSHIP SEARCH" HAS OVER THREE-MILLION SCHOLARSHIPS, WORTH MORE THAN 18-BILLION DOLLARS. STUDENTS SIMPLY CREATE A PROFILE, AND THE PROGRAM MATCHES THEM TO OPPORTUNITIES THAT FIT THAT PROFILE. THERE ARE SCHOLARSHIPS OPEN TO STUDENTS AS EARLY AS GRADE-SCHOOL--AND OVER HALF ARE AVAILABLE FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE ALREADY ENROLLED IN COLLEGE. HOWEVER, MISSING AN APPLICATION-DEADLINE WILL CERTAINLY ELIMINATE A STUDENT FROM CONSIDERATION--SO STAYING ORGANIZED IS CRITICAL. AND, STUDENTS SHOULD REACH OUT TO THE ORGANIZATION--TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR APPLICATION WAS RECEIVED. TO LEARN MORE, VISIT "SALLIE-MAE"-DOT-COM-SLASH-"SCHOLARSHIPS".
