Chase Community Giving
[x-msg://158/]
I rarely ask for help, but I REALLY need you to help promote The Scholarship
Academy and encourage all of your networks to vote for us for the Chase
Community Giving grant. This $20,000 grant opportunity would really help us
take our vision of transforming average students into exemplary models of
leadership, scholarship and servanthood to another level.
Most of you have already had to grapple with the high cost of college. With the
Federal Pell Grant facing a $19 billion gap, nearly 14 million students will be
hanging in the balance. The Scholarship Academy is positioned to help students
claim scholarship success and graduate with little to no debt.
I NEED you to vote twice, and be sure that you recieve a "hero badge" so that
your vote is counted. I NEED you to ask your facebook friends to vote and post
a message each day, remind people, hold people accountable. This is so
important for our organization. Please help! I've posted the Chase Link on my
page. Just click it and vote. Let me know if I can count on you to serve as an
ambassador for Scholarship Academy. Thanks!

"How I won my first scholarship"
I truly believe that if it wasn't for The Scholarship Academy I would have
never developed the motivational drives that led me to winning my first
scholarship. Because I recognized that the essay is a very important part of
the scholarship process, I used the resources given by The Scholarship
Academy's Workbook that helped me craft my essay into a "winning essay". After
doing draft after draft with the workbook right beside me, doing the many
different activities that are throughout the book, I finally came to a final
draft that I was confident in. Two months ago, I won my first scholarship from
The Black College Expo. My possibilities are endless.

How to Get $100K in Scholarships for College!!!
[x-msg://158/] Each year thousands of students find themselves trapped in loan
valley. As a Howard University alumnus who has received nearly $200,000 in
scholarships, I've learned a few tips that I'd love to share.
For many, securing additional funds for college may be somewhat frustrating.
How do you find scholarships that you are eligible to receive? Which
scholarships do you have a better chance of winning? How can you increase your
chances of receiving a scholarship?
With so many questions surrounding the scholarship application process, where
do you start? At The Scholarship Academy, we teach our students to focus on
what they bring to the table. What have you done that would cause an
organization to award you $100,000?
The first step in the scholarship process is simply a portfolio to market
yourself as the perfect candidate. By modeling yourself as a student of
academic excellence who is willing to help others or even a young person
determined to use life's obstacles as an opportunity to educate your peers, you
can easily place yourself as a top scholarship applicant. Many scholarship
foundations are looking for students who have made a considerable impact on the
lives of those around them. Spend the summer creating opportunities to make
yourself stand out. Why not start a local summer tutoring program for
elementary students or coach a Little League team? For ideas on local
volunteer opportunities,

The summer is also a great time to start your scholarship research. There are
many different scholarships that focus on certain academic fields. Finding the
scholarships that best fit you now will be very useful when it comes to
navigating the scholarship maze during the school year. Remember, not all
scholarship search engines are useful. Here's a few of our preferred
scholarship search engines:
