Office of Financial Aid: Private Scholarships

Many private scholarships for college students are offered each year by a variety of corporate, professional, trade, government, civic, religious, social, and fraternal organizations. These scholarships can range in amount from small honorariums to thousands of dollars. To be considered, students must meet the eligibility criteria specified by the donor or sponsor and complete a scholarship application (if required).

Searching for and applying for scholarships is a time-consuming process, so it is a good idea to start as early as possible. (Prospective students should begin as early as two years before admission to the university.) Breaks from school provide good opportunities to spend time on your search.

A NOTE ABOUT SEARCH SERVICES THAT CHARGE A FEE

Several companies offer computerized scholarship search services, often charging fees of $175 or higher. The University of Michigan Office of Financial Aid does not recommend these services. Thoroughly investigate them before paying any of these types of fees. Read the Scholarship Scam Alert on The FinAid! website and information from the Federal Trade Commission.

OTHER SCHOLARSHIP RESOURCES

Other good places to start looking for scholarships include the reference section of your local library, your high school guidance counselor's office, and bookstores. You can save time by creating a form letter to send to organizations to inquire about their scholarships.
