Question 1

How to find math scholarships

Accepted Answer

After applying for the scholarships in the list above, students may be interested in finding more financial opportunities. A good place to start is to speak with the financial aid office at the high school or college that you attend.

Local scholarships often have even smaller applicant pools, with eligibility limited only to students at your school. Graduate students who are teaching mathematics or doing research for their degrees can also often find more financial aid opportunities through their labs or mentors.

Question 2

How to apply for scholarships in your state

Accepted Answer

Applying to local scholarships will give you a higher chance of being awarded, by being a part of a smaller pool of applicants. Bold.org has scholarship opportunities organized by state here.

Eligibility requirements can depend on where your home residency is, as well as where you go to school if attending out-of-state. Students can also check their state financial aid website for more locally-based scholarship opportunities. For example, the Connecticut Office of Higher Education has a variety of federal grant and scholarship programs for residents.
