But most schools also have many other scholarships available, many financed by alumni. These scholarships may be based on things like your background, your job aspirations, or your accomplishments. 联系 the admissions office of any school you are considering and ask about scholarship opportunities.
Many companies large and small offer scholarship programs. If you have a part-time job, ask your manager or look on your company’s website to find out about scholarship opportunities. Some are available to students who continue working at the same company while going to college. Others are available simply because you’ve worked at the company in the past. And your parent’s employer may also offer scholarships.
