REAL WORLD Advice, Suggestions, Tips and More! I do not want to lead anyone to believe that "everyone" can win scholarships; that's simply not true. The road to winning scholarships is a long one, and it can be filled with disappointment and rejection more frequently than with reward and satisfaction.
Because scholarships are so difficult to find, apply for, and win, I give you more *real-world* advice, suggestions, tips, hints, tricks, and information than anywhere else on the Internet, written by real students who have won scholarships (and scholarship judges!) all in the hopes of helping YOU improve your odds of winning a scholarship!

Why I Started FreSch! It is my personal belief that education is the responsibility of society, and should be provided at reasonable or no cost to its citizens in order to guarantee the future of that society. The unfortunate truth in many countries, though, is that we have to pay to become educated, productive citizens. Scholarships are a wonderful way to fund an education, and the enlightened persons and organizations that offer these scholarships are to be applauded, supported, and thanked. READ MORE
