Something that blows my mind is that people are truly not aware of the BILLIONS of dollars of scholarships available to them outside of tribal scholarships. College is EXPENSIVE and so is everything else. Why not look for other resources!?

I encourage anyone I meet to start with a google search and narrow it down to their specific field of study, degree type, location, etc. You will be amazed by the opportunities you find.

Because our office gets asked daily about other scholarships, we summarized some of our favorites into one place. This is not an exhaustive list by any means, but includes resources we see our students actually receiving. If you haven't applied to these yet and you qualify, here is your sign to get applying! We will try to remind you of their individual deadlines, but put them in your calendar now just in case! This is FREE MONEY! 💰
