External Scholarship Application Tips

Start early! Prepare profiles, cover letters, résumés, & reference letters in advance.

Manage Your Time! Set aside 1-2 hours per week to work on them, keep track of deadlines on your phone, and keep copies of your applications & submissions.

Proffreed! Cheque you’re speling and grammer! Or ask a friend. Just get it checked.

Apply to everything! The more scholarships you apply for, the better your odds - sometimes you might get a scholarship because you’re the only one who applied! Don’t overlook the smaller amounts, they often have fewer applicants.
