IMPORTANT: This is an evolving list of potential scholarship resources for students who are one of or in combination of the following: minority, underrepresented, first generation, female, or undocumented, This list includes scholarship and financial aid resource information from sources predominantly not connected to the University of Iowa. Thus, unless noted, the University of Iowa does not determine award criteria, dollar amounts, application procedures, deadlines, or future renewal. This scholarship information may be helpful in assisting prospective and current students with their pursuit to finance a college education. The websites listed have been checked for authenticity but the UI is not responsible for the content, updating of, or access to any of these websites unless they are official UI links. . It is recommended that you use this listing and the other information provided as a supplement to filing the FAFSA.
Tips for Getting Scholarships and Other Financial Aid: • Work hard to get and maintain good grades in school • Perform as well as you can on your ACT, SAT, GRE etc… • Start early looking for scholarship money: internet, library, your community etc... • If a scholarship requires a letter of recommendation, ask your teacher/professor or counselor/advisor; someone who knows your academic ability in the classroom • If a scholarship requires you to write an essay, have a teacher/professor or counselor /advisor read your essay before you submit a final version; be prepared to re-write before final submission • Read the scholarship forms, applications, and deadlines carefully and follow instructions as indicated—Look for scholarships a YEAR In ADVANCE of your need! • File your FAFSA electronically as soon as possible after January 1st. • Complete a FAFSA each year that you are in college and follow through on submitting all of the required documents for financial aid—check with your school’s financial aid office about required documents • Ask questions when you are unsure
Tips To Protect Yourself From Scholarship Scams: http://www.finaid.org/scholarships/scams.phtml • If you must pay money to get money, it might be a scam, unless purchasing a book on scholarships or aid • If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. • Spend the time, not the money, looking for scholarships: • Never invest more than a postage stamp to get information about scholarships • No one can guarantee that you will win a scholarship • Check the credibility of scholarship websites and/or other internet sources 1 Scholarships For Diverse Populations Compiled by VGarr, University of Iowa College of Nursing---July 2013
