3. 1. Volunteer service is critical, if the student isnt
helping others, why should we help them.2. Get scholarship
recommendation letters in late August to early September of your
senior year. Some scholarships have September due dates. You need
one each from a school counselor, favorite teacher, community
member, employer, minister, and/or coach. DO NOT put a date on
it!!!1. Have at least four generic essays, including one on your
future goals and a personal autobiographical statement.2. Get one
of those large desk calendars and record scholarships and each due
date. Mail application two weeks ahead of due date. (Maintains
parental sanity, hahaha.)1. Check your campus career center weekly,
see if they have a list of scholarships. Check Schoolloop weekly
for updates. James W. Reede, Jr., Ed.D. 2012
4. 1. Have a parent and your English teacher proofread
essays.2. Use the checklist that comes with the scholarship
application to ensure completion of the packet.3. Order at least 10
copies of transcripts at the end of each term for inclusion in the
application packets.4. Try to mail applications no less than 2
weeks ahead of the due date.5. Begin your search early.6. Develop a
