Win a $1,000 scholarship! Early-bird applications postmarked by February 12 will be entered in a drawing for one of three $1,000 scholarships! See complete official rules at www.vsac.org/scholarships.

Researching scholarships is worth the effort since scholarships usually do not have to be repaid.

No single source lists all available scholarships, so use many resources.

Learn more about scholarships and where to find them.

• Go to www.vsac.org/scholarships.
• Visit your high school guidance office.
• Check with your college financial aid office.

NOTE: Scholarships can affect a student’s overall financial aid, so ask each college how it handles outside scholarships:

• Will the college reduce its own aid, or can the family use the scholarship to reduce its out-of-pocket expense?
