[Page 8] The Best College Junior Scholarships with Upcoming Deadlines in 2025

Finding scholarships for college juniors begins with a quick search on Bold.org's website. As previously mentioned, scholarships can be found by entering a keyword, or filtering by education level or category. Once you find a scholarship you qualify for, simply click "apply now" and follow the instructions. In addition to looking specifically for college junior scholarships, another recommendation is to sort scholarships by degree type or career goals. If you're a college junior majoring in the arts or STEM, narrowing down your search by major could work as well. There is no limit to how many scholarships you can apply for or win on Bold.org, so start applying now!

As a college junior, you're almost at the finish line of your college career. It is recommended that you apply for scholarships as soon as possible and stay on top of deadlines early in the school year. High school students and high school seniors usually apply the summer before their incoming year. College juniors should follow a similar schedule and start applying in the summer before the semester begins to get a jump on their applications. It is important to gather the necessary materials and information early on to avoid becoming overwhelmed - especially once the school year starts.

Scholarships will have specific requirements that college juniors will have to meet in order to apply. The majority of scholarships require students to demonstrate that they're in good academic standing, which could require you to provide your transcript or GPA. For some scholarships, a minimum GPA is required and you might be asked to maintain a certain GPA for the entirety of a school year or all four years.
