Scholarships are very much like the 50/50, you have to be in it to win it. North Guidance takes scholarships very seriously. 

Applying for scholarships can become a full time job. There are thousands (yes, really!) of scholarships available to you. It can become a tedious task so we do our best to vet them for you. Here are a few things you should know:

• Scholarships that are emailed to guidance are posted on Naviance. When a few scholarships are posted, an email will be sent with the name of the scholarship, the deadline and a brief description. If you feel you are eligible, then you must login to Naviance, click on College tab, scroll to Scholarships & Money, click on Scholarship Search.  *Please note, any scholarship that has an * next to it denotes it is a local scholarship, which means a student from Middletown will most likely be the recipient. *Hint, Hint: Apply for the *local scholarships!

• In Naviance, you can also create a National Scholarship Search based on your profile on Naviance by doing the following: Login to Naviance, click on Colleges tab, scroll to Scholarships & Money, scroll down to National Scholarship Search. These scholarships are loaded in the system from Naviance headquarters.

• Last but not least, you can use a scholarship search engine website to search for scholarships. When you use scholarship search engines it is strongly recommended you create a separate email address for scholarship purposes only as you will be spammed with all available scholarships based on the profile created. Reputable scholarship search engines: Student Scholarships.org, FastWeb, BigFuture
• Don't forget to ask your guardian's employer if they offer scholarships!
