Most parents stay busy with the usual elements of life - kids, work, spouse, house … the list can sometimes seem endless. That's why it's important to combine things when you can, and kill the proverbial two birds with one stone. A great place to apply this concept is when your high school student is pursing college scholarships.
Finding scholarships isn't easy and takes a lot of time, but when you consider the cost of college today, it's definitely worth it. Finding scholarships is just the tip of the iceberg because after you find them, you need to filter them down to those your child is eligible for. After filtering, it's helpful to format the scholarships you want to apply to, so you can keep track of due dates and requirements. Finally, and perhaps the most difficult part, is helping your student follow through with the application.
As the parent, you can do a lot of the legwork for scholarship applications, but your student must ultimately write the paper or produce the product. It's hard work, and that's why they get high school credit for it. Hopefully, they will also get the college scholarships!
