First, the high school guidance office has a list of local scholarships and some state grant programs. With the local scholarships, there is a lesser amount of competition for them compared to national scholarship searches.

Second, the local public library has a book listing scholarships with some not even located on the web.

Finally, join several free scholarship search websites. You enter information into a form and it will search for scholarships matching the criteria. There is a scholarship for almost anything.

Good luck!
