High Paying Scholarships for current college students



The largest dollar amount scholarships have some of the stiffest competition and the longest lists of selection criteria. However, you should not automatically discount these competitions
My grandpa always told me, "its better to ask, (or in this case apply), the worst you can get is a "no", and that leaves you in a same place you were when you started."
So I'll pass those words of advice to you.
