Graduate Financial Aid

A blog about how to pay for graduate school

10.22.07 | Scholarships = FREE MONEY FOR GRADUATE SCHOOL

Posted in Uncategorized by Katie Dexter

Sometimes I feel like a broken record - clean out the fridge, load up on vitamin C during cold season, clean the closets, etc. But, there is one tip that I cannot stress enough - when financing a graduate school education, always look at scholarships for FREE MONEY. The Student Loan Network offers a few options for Graduate students who are looking to add a little more funding to their existing financial aid package of Stafford and Graduate PLUS loans or private student loans.

Check out ScholarshipPoints.com - it’s a new, interactive way to earn points towards a monthly drawing of $250 and a quarterly drawing of $1000. All you need to do is fill out surveys, review products or refer friends - the points start to add up and you get entered into the drawings. Warning - I’m back to my broken record self, I think, but why doesn’t want to get an additional source of graduate school funding??

Another great site is StudentScholarshipSearch.com. This site is a bit more traditional in the sense that you need to fill out the applications and fulfill the requirements of the scholarship before you can be considered. However, isn’t it worth it?

Take advantage - CASH IN!!
