Finding Scholarships Online
Have questions about scholarships at EKU? Contact us at (859) 622-2361 or scholarships@eku.edu.
The Web is an excellent way to find a scholarship.
Go to your favorite search engine (Google, Yahoo, etc.), and in the search window, type "scholarship search services" and press the Enter key.
As you will see, there is a wealth of information. Visit as many service links as possible and follow these tips:
1. Be Honest: Submit truthful information when building your profile so that the search service can return accurate and timely information to you.
2. Be Careful: Double-check all information you receive—some awards listed on the Web may be inaccurate or no longer active. The Web is subject to the same issues as regular mail.
3. Protect Your Information: You should not have to provide a credit card or bank account number to receive information about scholarships. Any service that makes this request should be vigorously checked before you provide such information.
The following are some helpful websites. Note that EKU is NOT responsible for the content on any of these sites or for any processing fees associated with the services and/or scholarships that these organizations offer. We recommend that students NOT pay for any scholarship searches and applications.
