Money for College

Listen to me read this post


Some of you who are learning English want to go to the US to continue your studies.  But it's very expensive so you want to know about scholarships for international students. 

Unfortunately, I do not know much about this subject. I am not connected with any scholarship programs or have any special information on any specific programs.
 
However, I looked up scholarships on the internet and I found these 2 websites.

The first is InternationalStudent.com and the second is a blog from their sister site International Education Financial Aid

The International Student website has a scholarship search page but before you start searching go to this link on their website that explains about applying for scholarships and how to avoid scams.  A scam is something that looks real or legal but is actual not legal and it's set-up to steal your money. So you want to avoid that and they will give you some tips on how to spot a scam.

Once you've read that go to their scholarship search page.
You can search for a scholarship based on What are you studying, Where are you studying, or Where are you from?  You can choose to answer 1 or all 3 and it will give you a long list of results.  You can look through the results and find the scholarships that interest you.

Besides the scholarship search page, International Student has lots of information that you might find useful.  Here is a link to an article on their site called Study in the USA.
It includes lots of helpful information from how to find a college to what state to choose. 

The other website I mentioned earlier International Education Financial Aid is a blog.  All of the posts are related to money either finding money for college or picking a major that will help you find a good job after college.  Check it out at http://blog.iefa.org/

I hope you find these 2 websites helpful.  If you know of any other scholarship websites that you want to share with your fellow students add them to the comments page. 

Thanks and see you next time at fastfoodenglish.blogspot.com
