Scholarship Book for 1999-2000To offset staggering education costs, nearly all students today need assistance. Over half of college financial aid comes from the private sector. From the world's largest private-sector financial aid database, Cassidy identifies 2,500 of the best scholarships, loans, grants, and internships -- including 1,000 new to this edition. In competing for valuable college aid, this granddaddy of all scholarship books provides a distinct advantage. Not padded with information easily found elsewhere, it offers solid data on applying for private-sector scholarships, grants, and aid -- identifying which are renewable, and how to win multiple scholarships. Giving complete application guidelines, deadlines, and sample letters, Cassidy outlines qualifications, award amounts, areas of study, contact names, and demonstrates how a wide range of incomes, ages, and students without financial need or superior grades can qualify and secure aid. |
