Do you want a scholarship?

[BushBaby]

I was wondering (for those accepted or waitlisted) are you doing a scholarship search or applying to outside scholarship sources?

I know I will get more loans in my financial aid packet but I am searching for outside aid. I know about the military ones (air force...etc..), but I am more interested in money with no strings attached. Anyone have any good leads?

Hey Mellow - there was one for $5000 per year for each year of med school - the deadline is April 15th and the organization is Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). Just do a search on google. There's also the NMF minority scholarship - up to $10,000per year - it's need-based. The deadline is I believe June 28th. There's some more that I wrote off for, and I'll let you know then....off the top of my head, one is Alpha Epsilon something something and it's for $4000/year. All of the above are for entering med school students...there's lots more but most are for 2nd years and up

He. I definitely don't qualify for the DAR...

I don't know why I'm finding this so amusing.
