Sandburg has compiled a sortable and filterable table of external scholarship opportunities, which is updated and reviewed regularly. Important eligibility criteria for each scholarship should be researched by the student, usually by searching the scholarship application website or listed on the front page of the application.
These are external scholarships that Sandburg has limited information on. All questions regarding individual scholarships should be directed to the originating scholarship organization, usually found on their website or at the end of the application.
