In Your Spare Time...

Hi, Progressive U bloggers! The holiday season is here and you are probably anticipating a much needed break from your academic courseload.  I encourage you to not just watch your favorite TV shows or go shopping every single day; instead, start or continue your search for scholarships.

Check out www.fastweb.com and www.scholarships.com for national and regional scholarships. Talk to your guidance counselors or teachers about scholarships in your local area. Make it a fun and exciting activity by inviting your friends over for a "Scholarship Soiree"; this way everyone can get feedback on their essays.

It's important that you take your scholarship search seriously and convey that in your essays because if you don't, no one will trust you enough to give you free money for college.  You are the only one who can control your destiny. So, TAKE CONTROL!

Happy Holidays and Good Luck!

Fastweb is where I heard about ProgressiveU. It has helped a little bit in my scholarship and college search.

That sounds like a great idea! I use all of my down time for writing scholarship applications now that I've taken the initiative to find some before the usual due dates.
