Scholarship Scams

Scholarship Scams


NEVER PAY MONEY FOR HELP WITH YOUR SCHOLARSHIP SEARCH.

Any organization that requires money or that you must agree to be contacted in order to search for scholarships is NOT TO BE TRUSTED.

Another red flag is if an organization requires a credit card or bank account number in order to "hold" the scholarship for you.

Any unsolicited information (you are a finalist for a scholarship you never applied for), is also a scam.
