Most students are well aware of the existence of scholarships, yet ignorant of how best to seek them.\u00a0 Searching for scholarships can be a rather daunting task; often leaving scholarship seekers exhausted and disheartened before even entering the actual application phase.\u00a0 Traveling from site to site and sifting through the myriad unrelated scholarship offers is a waste of time and energy.\u00a0 Using Peterson\u2019s college scholarship search tool<\/a> will allow you to use your time and energy more efficiently by tailoring your scholarship search to you and your needs.<\/p>\n

Peterson\u2019s database includes thousands of scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students alike. Simply clicking a few circles will guide your search in the right direction; narrowing your search results to the scholarships that correspond with your level of education (undergraduate or graduate), desired institutional setting (university, four-year college, two year college, or trade technical institution), and desired status (full time or part time).\u00a0 After just a few easy clicks, you will have access to an abundance of scholarship options and can further narrow your search using up to an additional sixteen filters (e.g. amount, area of study, disability).\u00a0 The resultant scholarships can be arranged in any of six ways (the amount offered; in either descending or ascending order; by high or low availability, deadline dates, or merely in alphabetical\u00a0order) to better prioritize your search.<\/p>\n

Each scholarship result features the name of the scholarship and its sponsor(s), the amount offered, the number of scholarships still available, the number of scholarships awarded in the most recent reported year (often along with the number of applicants), the deadline, and whether or not they are renewable.\u00a0 Scholarships of interest may be saved to your Peterson\u2019s account so that you may continue browsing options and return to your scholarship list later.\u00a0 Best of all, your search results are easily altered.\u00a0 Choosing a new filter selection or clearing (deselecting) an old one will automatically refresh your search; bringing up selections that fit your updated criteria.\u00a0 This allows you to broaden and narrow your search at your convenience.\u00a0 Clicking on the name of a scholarship of interest will redirect you to a page featuring a more detailed description of the scholarship and its requirements.<\/p>\n

While visiting the page for a specific scholarship, you will not only learn more about that individual scholarship, but the right hand column will display similar scholarships to help you along on your search.\u00a0 Lastly, Peterson\u2019s search tool<\/a> is totally free to registered users, as any legitimate scholarship assistant should be.\u00a0 There is absolutely no need to pay for a scholarship search. \u00a0So log in and take advantage of this free, work-reducing tool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
