When searching for scholarships not offered by East Stroudsburg University there are a number of avenues to explore.
First, we recommend checking with your high school guidance counselor.
Your counselor often has information from local businesses and organizations about scholarships they award to high school seniors.
Another popular method of looking for outside scholarships is through Internet sites and scholarship search companies.
EAC, finaid and fastweb offer free scholarship search services.
Beware of companies that guarantee scholarships for a fee. You've heard it before, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
