When is the best time to start looking for scholarships?
A. The sooner the better. Searching for scholarships does take time so it is a good idea to start early and search often. You can start researching as early as your junior year in high school, but most scholarships require that you be at least a graduating high school senior before applying. You should also assume that most deadlines are in early spring so decisions can be made and applicants notified before school starts in the fall. Eligibility requirements and deadline dates may vary from year to year, so be sure to revisit sites and review the details frequently.
