I recently received an email from one of my Class of 2026 students informing me that she won a Scholarships360 scholarship! This is one of my favorite scholarship sites, and the more active a student is on the site, the more "weight" they give to scholarship applicants.
From my student: "I won the scholarship! The scholarship committee was wonderful to speak with, and we connected on personal and professional levels... your guidance has helped me have presence to get to the next level, as they said part of the reason I was initially [selected] was due to my active presence on Scholarships360..."
Today’s featured scholarship is a great opportunity for students to get started on the Scholarships360 platform!
Federal loan limits are changing starting July 1, 2026. Join this webinar for a deep dive on what those changes look like for Parents and for Graduate Students.
If you, or your student, are enrolled in school before 7/1, you may be able to keep the existing (better) loan structures, but specific requirements apply. We’ll also cover what those requirements are and what to watch out for so that you don’t lose this extended eligibility.
