Scholarships, Financial Aid and Student Internships

A cautionary note: Be wary of scholarship scams. If you have to pay money to compete for a scholarship it may be nothing but a way to solicit your money. The money being solicited from applicants may be the only funds in the “scholarship fund”. The scam may have a very small payoff, with most of the money being pocketed by the “scholarship” group, and your chances to see any are like a lottery-just slightly better than nothing.
