Scholarship Searches

When to begin searching

The best time to begin looking for scholarships and grants is during your sophomore or junior year in high school, but some opportunities are still available throughout high school and college.

Begin with your own contacts

First, consider your interests, hobbies, jobs, and affiliations (and those of your parents), and begin your search in your own hometown. Check with your high school, clubs, service organizations or wherever you have demonstrated special talents and hard work. Find out if your parents' employers offer any educational benefits.

MSU scholarships

Simply by applying to MSU you may be offered a scholarship through the MSU Office of Admissions. Current MSU students may also contact their academic departments for possible scholarship or assistantship opportunities.  See the links on our home page for information relating to study abroad, athletes, students with children, etc.

Scholarship search services

Expand your search by using online scholarship search services such as those listed below. Remember that you will need to submit your application materials directly to the awarding organization and meet all their requirements and deadlines.

Watch for scams!

  • MSU does not endorse any scholarship service that charges a fee.
  • Be wary of companies that guarantee results. No company can guarantee that you will get a scholarship.
