NATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS- use the InterNet too
Students should search the InterNet. Two widely used websites are:
studentawards.com, scholarshipscanada.com
It’s possible to pick up some smaller scholarships by digging for them. For example, a Dover student won $500 in a Canadian History contest last year.
