You can too. Just sign up on each site to receive email when each posting is made.

Here are just a few:
Planning and Preparing for College - C. Herd and the artivist list all kinds of different scholarships here and regularly update their blog too.

The Scholarship Dude - Judge Joe Barsch - this well-documented blog has much information on scholarships from all over, plus an Advice and Articles section.

About.com College Admissions - there is much good advice here about colleges, scholarship essays, and more. The About.com site also has other very useful pages for scholarship seekers. Another is the About.com Business School page. and the Graduate School Guide.

What is great about all these sites is that you can sign up for notices right in your inbox. That way you don't miss any of the articles or deadlines for scholarships.

Good luck in your scholarship search!

WKU offers Bonner Scholarship Program

Tweet

Great info! I received this information today via an email from the local ALIVE group.

The ALIVE group helps people in the community help others by volunteering and learning about community needs.They are connected to this program, whose full name is the Corella & Bertram F. Bonner Foundation.

There are 80 different schools in the Bonner Scholarship network. Western Kentucky University is one of them.

The Bonner Scholarship Program has its own web page at Western. This sounds like a great opportunity.

Students get help with their schooling, PLUS the students have a chance to give back with community service. I like this!

Here is a list of colleges who are part of the Bonner Network. Is your school listed there?

Funding for International Students coming to the U.S. to study

Tweet

Hi, everyone! I hope you are finding funding for your educational journey.

I got a question today online about sources for overseas students coming to the US to study.

I am posting part of my answer here, and adding more about it too.

Are you serious about coming the US to study? Then I would suggest looking into scholarships and grants right away. It could make all the difference for you.

First, I would check out the school(s) you are interested in. Chances are they may have their own funds, scholarships, and grants you can apply for. Get in touch with Admissions to find out.

Secondly, look for QUALITY sites online to find out about even more programs.

For US Resources for out-of-country students, try searching for overseas scholarships on my Scholarships and Grants blog here:

http://www.findscholarshipsandgrants.blogspot.com/

Use the Search function to the right there.

US State Department resources listed with sites like Scholarships.com or FastWeb, or maybe the Gold Standard scholarships are good ideas, as well as the great Fulbright Scholarships. 

 

There are also some listed on this page: http://www.finaid.org/scholarships/prestigious.phtml. Scroll down to see these.

 

You can also google "US educational opportunities for foreign students" or "US Scholarships for International Students" and see what comes up. I think you may be pleasantly surprised at the variety and kind of international student scholarships available today.

 

Good luck finding sources, and I hope these are helpful hints too.

Are you a veteran going back to school? Or maybe you know someone who is a veteran and would like to go back to school?

At WKU, there is a special office just for Veterans, the Veterans Affairs office. They help with all forms and find out what benefits each veterans have.

Here are their helpful links too:
http://www.wku.edu/veteran/valinks.php

They include the Dept. for Veterans Affairs, Vocational Rehab site, a link to the Kentucky Troops to Teachers program site, AND the WKU Upward Bound page.

These programs are available across the country. They are well worth looking into.

Veterans, just give your local college or school a call and let them guide you to local Veteran's resources for scholarships, grants, and lots more.

Good luck, veterans!
