Resources for scholarships?

[greenmom4]

So... I'm in my senior year, I'm earning a B.S. in Business with a focus in project management (my program is entirely online). I have a 4.0 and right now I work PT for a ballet studio and I have 3 kids. Due to increased course load, I'm responsible for about $2k more in tuition this year than last year which amounts to a 300% increase in my monthly payment, which stinks. I'm looking for away to offset some of this, but I don't know how to go about searching out scholarship opportunities, everything I google looks scam-ish. Anyone know of legit scholarship/grant databases?

TIA!

go through your financial aid office. unfortunately most scholarships that have deadlines in the fall do not take effect til the folowing year, but maybe the finaincial aid office can help.

Do you have a women's center at your college? If so, they have lists of all the women centered scholarships available to you.. many of them just for student mothers, and just for your school, not nationally.

Also, look on your college's website for a list of scholarships. Since you have such a great GPA that opens you up to lots of scholarships at your school. My community college had a tuition waiver program for the students with the highest GPAs (I got one!!), so you can see if your school has something like that too.
