This is such a good article with very useful information! Scholarships are a great source of money to pay for college, but most people don’t have the time or energy to look for them. And even if they do, there’s so much information out there that it can be totally overwhelming!! I spent my son's entire senior year searching for scholarships, and yes, it paid off! As a result of all my hard work and the experience I gained, I founded a company called Scholar Dollars. We provide personalized scholarship searches for students and focus on locating more obscure and local scholarships that are harder to find, which means that our clients have a better chance of winning! On average, we provide high school seniors and undergraduate students with OVER 250 scholarship opportunities throughout an entire year! You can find more information at www(dot)Scholar-Dollars(dot)com. Of course, the ultimate result and money won depends on the student’s motivation, determination, and commitment, but the money is there if you are willing to work for it!

Thanks for this article - I have worked with teenagers who have done this and it has always been a positive experience for them. In addition, as you mention, it is very appealing to future employers and colleges.
