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.
