\"ScholarshipsFact: You don\u2019t need to wait until senior year of high school<\/a> to start applying for college scholarships.\u00a0 Many students are surprised to learn that there are scholarships for all ages and grade levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s true. You can start applying for scholarships as a high school junior and even before that.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you can find scholarships that let you apply early you should. While there are thousands of scholarships out there, it takes time to find appropriate ones for you. It also takes a good amount of time to put together your scholarship applications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The earlier you apply, the more relevant scholarships you\u2019ll find and the more time you\u2019ll have to apply to them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When Should you Start Applying for Scholarships<\/b><\/h2>\n

Most students start looking into college scholarships once the reality of college costs<\/a> settle in. This is typically when they start applying to college or even after they\u2019ve been accepted and have to start paying the bills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While you may not find <\/span>many<\/span><\/i> scholarships for freshman<\/a> or sophomore year students, it can be helpful to start doing research at this stage. Even if you won\u2019t be applying to many of these scholarships for some time, it\u2019s good to get a sense of what\u2019s out there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you know the kinds of scholarships out there, you have more time to prepare. For example, many merit scholarships ask students to take certain classes or meet a volunteer requirement. By learning of these requirements early on, you have more time to organize your class schedule. This way, you can be sure to meet requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And while there aren\u2019t many scholarships available for the young high school students, if you find them you should absolutely apply for three reasons:\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Since less people know about them, the competition will be easier.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Applying for scholarships early on gives you more time (and practice) applying to scholarships (rather than doing it all at the last minute)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Applying to more scholarships gives you more chances to win more scholarships (duh!)\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In the next section we\u2019ll look more specifically at applying for scholarships as a Junior.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Can you Apply for Scholarships as a Junior?<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Of course you can! You probably have a lot going on this year, but things aren\u2019t going to get any easier next year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Applying for scholarships takes a lot of time. You will likely be spending the first half of your senior year applying to colleges and filing your <\/span>FAFSA<\/span><\/a>. This alone will take up a lot of your time and energy.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Why not get a head start so you can free up some time during a crucial senior year? Junior year is when you start to become eligible for more scholarships. It\u2019s the perfect time to start really getting into your scholarship search and organizing your application materials.<\/span><\/p>\n

    You don\u2019t need to completely throw yourself into your scholarship search at this point. But, it is a good idea to set aside a few hours every week to work on scholarship applications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"ScholarshipsMany scholarships have fall deadlines. If you aren\u2019t heavily into your scholarship search by the summer after your junior year, then it\u2019s an absolute must to start working on it. You don\u2019t want to scramble to get your apps done during the fall when you\u2019re already overwhelmed by college applications.<\/span><\/p>\n

    In the next section we\u2019ll look at a few scholarships that Juniors (and in some cases freshmen and sophomores) can already apply for.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
