Compiles over thirteen hundred scholarships and college funding programs that are based on merit rather than financial need.

Lists and describes more than 1000 merit scholarships and other no-need funding programs available to high school seniors and recent graduates.

Do you think your parents make too much money for you to qualify for financial aid? Do you think that all college aid programs require financial need? Not true! Here's your guide to 1,000 merit scholarships and other no-need college funding programs -- open just to high school seniors -- that never look at income level. There are dozens of other funding directories describing college aid. But, none of them are like this one. First, unlike other directories, the High School Senior's Guide focuses only on merit and no-need scholarships. Not one of the programs covered here requires financial need. Plus, only programs open to high school seniors are covered. No more scanning through hundreds of listings that apply to currently-enrolled college students, not to you. In addition, the entries here are grouped by discipline, so you can go directly to the area you want to study in college. Not sure what your major will be? No problem. There's even a section listing programs that are open to support studies in any area. And, you can access the information provided in this unique directory in every way you'll need: by program title, sponsoring organization, where you live now, where you want to go to school, your specific subject interests, and even deadline date. The High School Senior's Guide provides the only way to find money for college based solely on: -- academic record -- writing or artistic ability -- speech making skills -- athletic success -- high school club membership -- religious or ethnic background -- parents' military or organizational activities -- and even pure luck in random drawings

Identifies over 1,000 sources of funding for college-bound high school seniors or recent graduates that are not based upon financial need, and includes information such as eligibility requirements, limitations, and application deadlines, as well as contact numbers and addresses.
