Internet Sources for International Scholarships Use other search engines to search for scholarships: It’s almost always a BAD IDEA to pay a fee to apply for an external scholarship. Crowdfunding sites: Fund My Travel, Go Fund Me

Tips for a Successful Scholarship Application Attention to Detail Read the instructions thoroughly Understand the requirements Triple check that you have prepared all pieces of the application Essays Read about the organization/donor & cater essay accordingly Have someone proof-read & don’t forget spell-check! Ask for feedback

Tips for a Successful Scholarship Application References Not all will require references; those that do may have a form to fill out, or just ask for a recommendation letter Give your reference plenty of notice (2-3 weeks min.) If it is an online application, notify your references personally Try to use someone who knows you well academically; if the scholarship is subject-related, use a professor from that subject
