go to fastweb.com
ask a guidance counsealor at your school they should know exactally what your looking for.
Yeah, I used fastweb to find this site. :) It really is a good site to look up scholarships and you can also find internships!
Guidance counselors should be helping you with this too!
I agree with everyone else, try Fastweb.
Also, scholarships.com is similar to fastweb, but has some scholarships that Fastweb doesn't offer. You can also try searching for "scholarship application" to get a plethora of results.
The college Financial aid office that you're interested in is also a good source of information. Most of the deadlines for next year are around February, so be sure to get a head start.
Personal tips:
Keep a folder of applications, supporting documents, etc. that you can keep with you and copy as needed.
Keep a file of typed essays for common questions about career goals, what you've done in high school, why you want to enter a profession, etc.
Keep a resume' of activities, community service, etc.
Be persistent. If you apply for a bunch of them, you're bound to get at least one.

Honestly, fastweb is, in my opinion, one of the worst places to look for scholarships. They give you a list, and you can spend hours going through that list just to find the ones that are applicable to you, even though that's what THEY were supposed to be doing in the first place. When I check that I'm looking for scholarships for a third year college student, I should not be getting results intended only for first year students.
