How to find those smaller, less competitive scholarships?

I’ve heard that going after more specific or niche scholarships is the way to go, but I’m not sure how to start. Every scholarship I look into seems super competitive. Any advice on finding scholarships that aren’t so crowded?

Try focusing on things that make you unique. Think about your interests, strengths, hobbies, or even your intended major. Then, just Google something like this:

“[Interest or hobby] scholarships 2024 2025.”

Do you volunteer or belong to any clubs? You could even check if your or your parents’ workplace offers scholarships. They’re out there; it’s just about finding the right search terms.

Good luck!
