I am a freshman in college.?

I find it hard to find scholarships and other financial aid. Could any one give me advice about what to do? I filled out a fafsa and TOPS and everything else i could possibly think of!

Try making profiles on some of the free online search databases, such as fastweb.com, brokescholar.com, scholarshipexperts.com, and schoolsoup.com. They allow you to make a profile based on your unique interests, background and goals, and they find scholarship matches for you based on your profile.

Also, you might want to look at the book _How to go to College Almost for Free_, by Ben Kaplan. He gives a useful overview of the scholarship process and has a lot of tips (he won $90,000 in private scholarship money- it can be done!). His website is www.scholarshipcoach.com.

Make sure you file your FAFSA each year in time for the deadline so you can be considered for federal aid, too.

Good luck!

Besides looking to loans and grants you should also sign up for those grocery rewards programs that give you education dollars when you shop.
