Here are some quick tips to get you started looking for scholarships:           

• Think Local: Your child may have a better chance of getting a local or state scholarship - check with your counselor to find out more.
• Think Big: Consider the large national scholarship funds, including Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC), Coca-Cola, and Robert Byrd.
• Think Memberships: See if your union, religious organization, or community or fraternal organization offers scholarships to children of members.
• Think Employer: Many large companies offer scholarships or tuition reimbursement programs for dependent children of employees. Check with your human resources department.
• Think College: Colleges distribute a lot of scholarships. Find out what’s available at the colleges your child may be exploring.
• Think Ahead: Visit collegeboard.com and check out their FREE Scholarship Search tool under the “For Students” heading.
