  • Your current employer or that of your parent(s)
  • Other local opportunities in your area

Identity Theft and Scam Warning Signs

Before you begin searching/applying for scholarships, protect yourself by knowing how to identify scams. Only apply through reputable sites/organizations. Carefully review the terms and conditions of each opportunity before completing the applications and giving out any personal information.

Here are some tips for avoiding scholarship scams:

  • Never give out your SSN number or other highly sensitive personal information
  • Never provide credit card or bank account information
  • Never pay to apply for a scholarship or to gain access to a scholarship database. Don’t believe in a money-back guarantee or the promise of a scholarship. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
