9) You can only use scholarships at certain schools

This is a common misconception about scholarships. While certain scholarships may be restricted to certain schools, many scholarships are available for use at any accredited college or university of your choice. It’s important to read the fine print and understand the restrictions that come with each scholarship so that you can make the best decision for your education.

10) You can only get a scholarship if you’re a full-time student

No, that is not true! There are many scholarships available to part-time students as well. Some of these scholarships may require that students are enrolled in a certain number of credits per semester, but it is possible to receive scholarship funding even if you’re taking fewer courses than a full-time student.
