MONEY FOR COLLEGE

Here’s some information about available scholarship and funding opportunities.

Both the state of South Carolina and the federal government provide scholarships and grants. Some scholarships are merit-based programs, which mean that students have to meet certain grade requirements and compete for the money. Most grants are needs-based programs, which mean that the amount of money a student receives is based on how much financial help he or she needs.

Visit the SC Commission on Higher Education website to explore the various scholarships and grants and their requirements.

Hey, it’s free money. See if you can qualify!
