Note: 
The best source of scholarship information is often the Financial Aid Department of the school the student will be attending. Most schools have a number of scholarships for which only their students are eligible. Talking with librarians and high school guidance counselors can often turn up opportunities. Also, visit www.collegeincolorado.org and www.collegeinvest.org for more scholarship information.
