Hello guys, I’m looking for some advice on how to secure a merit scholarship. I’m about to apply to colleges and really want to ease the financial burden on my family. I’ve been doing well academically, but I’m not exactly sure what schools are looking for when they award these scholarships.
For those of you who’ve received a merit scholarship, what do you think made you stand out? Are there specific things I should focus on, like extracurriculars, essays, or certain test scores? Also, do you have any tips on where to find these scholarships and how to apply?
