Hey Tinka!
Hampton has given good scholarships. So that a plus. Howard is notorious for not giving much aid.
You should be able to find your local bank of scholarships by googling this pattern:[the name of your city & state] + the term “scholarship foundation”.
I’ll keep including scholarships juniors are eligible for in the weekly messages. Also, go through past scholarships here and in the google classroom.
PASSING ON TO ST. LOUIS METRO Residents!!!!
Alltru Credit Union is celebrating Juneteenth by sponsoring a Juneteenth Heritage Award. Youth between the ages of 5-25 can submit an expression of art answering the question, “How do you celebrate your Juneteenth heritage?” to community@alltrucu.org. Enter your submission no later than 5pm June 13, 2022 for a chance to win a total of $1,250. For submission details and entry, visit http://ow.ly/sKKP50JmZHJWhoa! Folks have started to send me some GREAT opportunities for college bound teens. ONE is a zoom meeting about college access geared toward juniors and seniors, ANOTHER is a Navy ROTC scholarship that “covers 100% of undergraduate tuition, books, uniforms, and includes a monthly subsistence allowance”. Also if you’re in the St. Louis metro, Spelman is having a meet up and I attached the flyer.

One technique for finding scholarships is to troll other high schools’ scholarship pages in your area. I realize that you going to a private school makes you ineligible for much of this, but looking at this page may give you some more ideas:
