There are different ways to get a scholarship while still in 6th grade.
1. Figure out what your talents are. Do you like arts or sciences? You can find art exhibits, science fairs, math competitions, and music competitions, depending on your skills and interests.
2. Look for competitions. Search for local science fairs and art exhibitions. Go online for some global competitions. (I recommend Google's many competitions, such as Doodle for Google and heir famous science fair.) Check how much money these competitions award in scholarships.
3. Once you have found a competition, prepare to win. Yes, you'll have to get win to get these scholarships.
But wait! There's more. You can opt for a long-term and more beneficial plan to win scholarships like a pro.
1. Work on your vocabulary. Build a solid base of good vocab words that you will use later to impress the scholarship guys.Plus, you'll look cool around your friends! Remember, do a little a day.
2. Work on your writing skills. When you're older, you'll be writing essay for scholarships and good writing skill are going to help. As you can see, you'll probably end up becoming good friends with your English teacher, but that's not bad. You'll be required to get recommendations from your teachers and the more the teacher knows you, the better.
3. Get good grades. Your high school grades are represented by your GPA, which will be a big factor in determining who gets those scholarships.
4. The SAT. Prepare for the SAT and other standardized tests such as the ACT. Vocab and writing skills will help, but work on math skills and read lots of books.
5. Apply. If you've got good grades and good SAT scores and have been working on your vocab and writing skills, you're ready. There are scholarships that you can find online. The usual way, however, is to apply to colleges, and when accepted, to apply for the college's scholarships. -You'll have to fill application forms. -You'll have to write application essays. -You'll have to get recommendation letters. To start this awesome long-term plan, just start reading some books (There's lots of fun ones and all the scholarship kids read.) and solving some math(You can find fun problems online or get a fun math book.).
