Question 1

How to find religious scholarships

Accepted Answer

As a first step, it is especially helpful to begin looking for scholarship opportunities through your church, as it will most likely be choosing winners from a much smaller pool of applicants than nationwide online scholarships. You can also ask your religious leaders or high school counselors for suggestions to learn more about local financial aid opportunities.

Question 2

When can I start applying?

Accepted Answer

You can start applying for scholarships on Bold.org as soon as you're at least fourteen years old and in high school. By starting to apply early in high school, you'll give yourself plenty of time to earn the funding necessary to cover your financial need.

However, it's never too late to apply. There are plenty of scholarships available to graduate students, including scholarships for doctoral students, students attending law school, or other graduate students.

Question 3

How do I know if I'm eligible for a scholarship?

Accepted Answer

When you find a particular scholarship that interests you, you can find the eligibility requirements listed in the description. Scholarship requirements often vary widely, depending on what kind of student the donor is looking to financially support. Factors like education level, age, race, location, and financial status can all be contributors to a scholarship's eligibility criteria. For instance, one scholarship may be for low income college students, while another may be for graduate students living on the West Coast, or high school student looking to study mathematics.
