Welcome to CSN Scholarships

Whether you’re a high school student, college student, nontraditional, or adult-learner, colleges offer scholarships to recruit a talented and diverse student body.  Scholarships are an alternative to loans.  Whether you’re a student or thinking of becoming a student, scholarships can be helpful in funding your education.  The CSN Financial Aid Office is here to help.

Helpful Tips:

  • Keep an eye on deadline dates!
  • The first step is to make sure you qualify for the scholarship.  Apply for every scholarship for which you are eligible. Every dollar you win in scholarships is a dollar less you have to borrow.
  • Your chances of winning a small scholarship are greater than your chances of winning a more lucrative scholarship because they are less competitive. But winning several small scholarships can add up to big money.
  • Essays can often be reused on multiple scholarship applications with slight tweaks, saving you a lot of time.
