A Word on Scholarships

When most people think about funding their children's college education, they are so focused on getting that scholarship they feel they deserve. Little do they know that of all the money that is available for college, only about 3% of it comes from private scholarships. Why is it that most people spend their time looking for these programs?

While you shouldn't spend much time looking for them, scholarships are still a viable option for some funding and deserve a little consideration. What I recommend is that they perform a simple scholarship search and see what happens. I use it from time to time and am somewhat suprised at the results.

I have also provided a link on my blogroll for anyone interested.
