November 2007
Dear StuDeNtS, PareNtS, aND FrieNDS
you know the facts: it takes a lot of money to pay for a college education!
these days students and families are struggling to meet the cost of tuition, room
and board, and books, but you know its worth it, because without a college degree,
your future is not as bright. but the question is how can you pay for it without
breaking the family bank? scholarships, thats how!
in addition to financial aid awarded by federal and state government agencies, there
are numerous scholarships that colleges and universities, business corporations,
private foundations, and community organizations are offering right now for high
school students going on to college, undergraduate students currently enrolled, and
even graduate students pursuing education beyond a bachelors degree. the money
is out there, but how do you find it?
the Pell institute, along with the sallie Mae fund and bet networks, is pleased to
present this scholarship guide for african-american students as one way to make
your scholarship search a little easier. inside this guide, you will find information
about scholarships that are designed to reduce the cost of college for african-
american students, and for all students of color.
along with the whos, whats, and hows for applying for scholarships, this guide
also contains information to connect you to sites where you can download online
applications (where available) and details to contact the sponsoring organizations
both in person and online. you can also access the online version of this scholarship
guide at www.blackcollegedollars.org, which allows you to search for scholarships
based on your interests and abilities.
we hope that you find this scholarship guide helpful as you navigate your way
through paying for college! good luck now get started!
sincerely,
colleen t. obrien,
Director, tHe Pell institute
for the study of opportunity in Higher education

Finding dollarS For college
beFore you begiN to look through the ScholarShiPS iN thiS
guiDe, there are a Few thiNgS you NeeD to kNow.
1) why ScholarShipS?
all students should apply for as much scholarship and grant aid as possible. why?
because you dont have to pay them back. this money is made available to help
students who meet specific qualifications pay for college. once you apply for and
receive the scholarship money, you can use it to pay for the costs you face, such
as tuition and fees, room and board, books, or other college-related expenses. in
limited cases, some scholarship providers ask recipients to participate in community
service or volunteer activities, or to work in certain jobs or areas for a limited time in
exchange for the financial support.
2) how do i apply For ScholarShipS?
as you will see in reading through this guide, each scholarship provider may have
their own process for students to apply and determine eligibility. generally speaking,
though, you may be asked to download an application and mail it in, along with the
required materials, or you may have to contact the organization to obtain a hard
copy of the application. in some cases, teachers, faculty members, or members
of your community may have to nominate you, meaning you will need to obtain
nomination forms or other materials to start the process of being considered for the
scholarship.
while the requirements can vary, there is some general information that scholarship
providers frequently request. to save time, gather the following before you begin
filling out applications: resume; personal statements and/or essays; letters of
reference/recommendation (from teachers, faculty, or other appropriate individuals);
transcripts; gPa; writing samples; other samples of your work, such as art or media
pieces; financial information, including the fafsa (see below); parental/student
income tax forms; and letters verifying enrollment, financial need, or receipt of
financial aid. while you may be asked to customize some of this information for
specific scholarships, starting with the basics will make the process go more
smoothly from the start.
3) what iS the FaFSa?
if you are a student who is entering college next year, you need to complete the
free application for federal student aid (fafsa). this form is used by the federal
government to determine your eligibility for federal aid, such as grants and student
loans. state agencies, colleges and universities, and many scholarship providers
also use the fafsa to assess financial need for students and their families.
this form is available in January of each year. using your own fnancial information, as
well as your parents information, fll it out as soon as possible as many aid dollars are
awarded on a frst-come, frst-served basis. once you have completed and submitted
the form, you will receive a student aid report (sar), which shows you how much
money your family is expected to contribute towards your education for the coming
8
year. with this information, colleges and scholarship providers are able to understand
the amount of fnancial aid you will need to pay for your education.
if you are already enrolled in college, dont forget that you have to renew your fafsa
every January to be eligible for aid the next school year.
4) how do i know iF ScholarShip oFFerS are legitimate?
one practical rule to follow is that if it costs money, beware! across the internet
scholarship search tools and materials are available free of charge. if a website, an
organization, or an individual asks you to pay a fee to look for scholarships, better
safe than sorrystay clear and use the free search tools and materials. in addition,
be careful about scholarships that require an application fee. while some legitimate
scholarships may do so, most do not, so check with college counselors, financial aid
offices, and other advisors before submitting payments or financial information to
anyone. you can also use online sources, such as www.finaid.org, to find out more
about potential scholarship scams.
5) where can i get more inFormation?
the u.s. department of education has several online sites, including student aid
on the web (http://studentaid.ed.gov/Portalswebapp/students/english/index.
jsp), which can help you plan for college and understand more about the student
aid process. the fafsa can also be filled out online, starting at http://www.fafsa.
ed.gov/, which will walk you through the process of completing and submitting the
fafsa. in addition, the department of education also provides free publications,
including a guide to student financial aid. you can order online, or by calling
1-800-4fed-aid (1-800-433-3243).
the sallie Mae fund website also includes more free resources you can
use to help plan and pay for college. you can download the information at
www.salliemaefund.org.

about thiS directory
the organizations and the scholarships that were selected for inclusion in this guide were
identifed by the Pell institute (with assistance from other fnancial aid professionals) as
aid awards that are specifcally targeted for african-american students. the guide also
includes scholarships and awards that are intended for all students of color.
in addition, selected scholarships were included based on several key criteria:
scholarship award amounts of $500 or greater;
eligibility not limited to one scholarship for one student from a
given school or area to attend only one institution; and
availability of up-to-date information including submission deadlines.
with the increased use of the internet, more providers are making applications
available online, and this guide contains these links when possible. two
considerations, though, in terms of using the online applications:
1) many organizations may not post the current application until a specifc date in
relation to the application deadline. be sure to check the websites of scholarships that
you are interested in periodically, particularly as the application deadline gets closer.
2) check the date / year of the application carefullyin some cases, you may be able
to access the application, but it may be the previous years form. while this may help
you know what type of information the organization requires, the application may
change from year to year. when in doubt, contact the sponsoring organization for the
most up-to-date information.
the united negro college fund (uncf) is an important scholarship resource for
african-american students. in addition to sponsoring several scholarships, uncf
administers many more scholarships for corporations and individuals who want to help
african-american students participate and succeed in college. you will notice as you
read through this guide that uncf is frequently listed as the contact source. for some
of the scholarships, students are able to apply online using a common application via
the uncf website, www.uncf.org/forstudents/scholarship.asp. you can also access
specific applications as required by some scholarship providers. the uncf scholarship
website is a good source of information for these and other scholarships. furthermore,
if you are interested in or are attending a uncf member institution (see the list on the
following page), you should also talk to the financial aid office at the college about
specific scholarships offered by the institution in partnership with uncf.
as noted above, there were criteria that limited the selection of scholarships
included in this guide. therefore, there are some existing scholarships not included
in this guide for which you may be eligible for. so, while you use this publication or
the online site as the starting point for your search, dont be afraid to look for more.
organizational websites such as uncf, the sallie Mae fund (www.thesalliemaefund.
org/smfnew/sections/search.html), and fast web (www.fastweb.com) can provide
more information about the search process and actual search tools.
eligibility for some scholarships included in this guide are restricted to uncf
member institutions, and/or in some cases, all Historically black colleges and
universities (Hbcus). the following list will help you identify these institutions:
