Financial Stress recap

For Michigan State University students worrying about paying for school, Val Meyers, an Associate Director for MSU’s Office of Financial Aid, said that students who spend a good amount of time on their résumé and keep track of their accomplishments for when they apply to scholarships generally have the most success. She said those who "make a business out of it" are often the most successful. Meyers suggested that students keep a log of their accomplishments and other honors and that they apply for several scholarships at once every day for a few days, so they can raise their chances of obtaining one of the scholarships they apply for. Meyers also suggested students utilize websites like Fastweb where they can access more scholarships than they would be able to through MSU's website alone.
