I thought I'd give my readers a heads-up on a great website. The website is
scholarshippoints.com. The site hosts scholarship drawings on a regular, frequent basis. You enter drawings by "spending" your points. Points are earned by getting codes from different pages of the website, or from their
twitter account, different challenges on the site, subscribing to partner sites (i.e. ZoomPanel) or simply by logging in. You can then put your points toward scholarship entries (one point = one entry). It is a really easy way to apply for scholarships (no long forms, essays, or finidng out what your parent's social security numbers are, how much they made last year and where they paid there taxes). The downside of this site is that there are a lot of people who use it, so your odds of winning go down. They also host a lot of offers from credit card companies, so it can be almost like a spam site at times. However, you can apply frequently for scholarships up to $10,000, without listing your experience, major, field of study, GPA, elementary school math average or any of the other hassle that comes with other scholarships. I can say that I never receive spam as a result of using this site, which is more than I can say for other similar sites. I definitely reccommend it for any college student seeking financial aid without debt.
