Win Free College ScholarshipsScholarshipPointers:

Winter break is here, and while it may be tempting, try not to get sucked in to doing NOTHING.  Sure, it’s a great time to relax, see your family and high school pals, eat real food, etc.  But you can also make excellent use of your time by winning a scholarship for next semester.  Since I just graduated this past May, this winter holiday season marks the first time I don’t get a month break from school and work.  Bummer, I know.  But if a ScholarshipPoints member wins one of these monthly scholarships below, well, I think that would be AWESOME.  Always remember, every $500 or $1,000 or $10,000  that you can come up with in scholarships is that much less that you have to pay back in student loans. And if you already signed up for these last month, do it again.  They’re new drawings every month, so you definitely can’t win if you don’t enter.

I was fortunate enough to walk away with some money towards school, but it took a lot of work.  From my senior year in high school throughout my 4 years of college, I made it a point every week to spend 15 minutes or so signing up for new scholarships.  The key to making it work is staying organized, and we’re here to help you with that!  If you haven’t already, read our free Scholarship Guide and visit our own scholarship search.  But first, check out the scholarship opportunities below.

If we at ScholarshipPoints love anything more than giving out money, it’s giving out other people’s money!  I kid, but seriously, we’ve done a bit of research over here and found some great scholarship offers you definitely should be interested in.  You can apply for these offers WEEKLY and get counted each time!

Here’s a brief rundown of each scholarship:

  • WinningSurveys.com Scholarship: an extremely simple signup for your shot to win $50,000 bucks.  No reason not to sign up.  They also give out $1,500 and $3,500 scholarships more frequently than the $50k
  • Cappex $1,000 Scholarship: Cappex is a terrific college matching tool.  A real must-use for incoming college students
  • FastWeb Scholarships:  Fastweb is the biggest scholarship search tool.  They do a great job of matching your profile to relevant scholarships.

And that’s all I have for you today, guys.  Pretty good point activity right?  So go win $80 grand.

Oh right, your code! ENTRTOWIN

    @Rach, I understand what you mean. But the fact remains, if you sign up, you're entered in a chance to win big money. If you don't, you're not.

    One can't help but be skeptical towards things like this.

  3. Jeffrey Nunnemaker says on March 3, 2009 at 4:54 pm:

    I hope it's my turn to win some scholarship $$$…

  4. JASON says on March 2, 2009 at 10:03 pm:

    looks like some great opportunities!, thanks captain!

  5. ayuk federick besong says on February 28, 2009 at 9:55 am:

    it is for real

  6. admin says on February 25, 2009 at 7:01 am:

    @Mitsu, of course people win these scholarships. I've spoken to each of these companies personally – and have even contacted some of the winners on Facebook to check.

  7. Mitsu says on February 24, 2009 at 10:46 pm:

    Not to sound negative or ungrateful, but I would really like to know if anybody ever actually WINS any of those scholarships. I don't see the incentive for those companies to just hand out $10,000, and I've never actually heard of anyone winning.

  8. admin says on February 18, 2009 at 1:04 pm:

    @Corrine

    But one day you WILL be 18 (and chances are you'll need a scholarship more then than now). Don't forget these opportunities.

  9. Corrine says on February 18, 2009 at 9:01 am:

    This is so unfair! You have to be 18 to enter them! I'm not 18!!

  10. tashabream says on January 31, 2009 at 12:47 pm:

    The Free College Scholarship and the Military Scholarship have to be confirmed from your e-mail to be entered. It will show up in your e-mail if you did everything right.
