There is more to every Scholarship, internship, and grant search.

More and more sites are now social. 
A social network - from Clker.com









There is the search first. You find some great sites. What do you do then?

After the crucial search step, you get the site, and maybe keep the link to come back later. That is important to do. You will be able to sign up for the site then, and check for news.

It's also vitally important to be socially connected to these sites to hear about new scholarships and more. If you are not yet connected (except for having their link), try to connect to a Facebook page or to a mailing list.

Also see if the sites have Twitter, LinkedIn, or direct email signups or Facebook pages.

Then check your email and social pages often.

You can get a solid filing system (on or off your computer) going AND a good system for checking your email and links too.

Decide how often you want to check. Make special automatic email folders, or copy information to files or folders on your desktop.

You can also print out hard copies and make a hard copy filing system. It's totally up to you.

Here are a few sites, postings, and ideas for doing just that.

#1. Get Organized - and keep track of your scholarship and grant applications

#2. Treat Looking for Scholarships like a Job

#3. Are you Signed up with Fastweb yet?

#4. Scholarship postings about scholarships and grants (you can run a search today too)

#5. FAFSA deadlines - do you know them?

Thanks for coming by to my blog today. And good luck on your scholarship search.
