UND Scholarship Central is an awesome resource for students to take advantage of when searching for scholarships. It has all different types of scholarships, even major specified ones. I strongly urge other students to fill out the General Application. Once students fill out all the information needed for the General Application, the system matches them with scholarships they are qualified for. It will also recommend some that need a little more information. Even if the system matches you with a scholarship and you apply, that does not mean there is any guarantee you will receive a scholarship. There are 25 pages worth of scholarships; some require you to be in a specific organization or have a specific GPA while others anyone can fill it out. 

This list of scholarships is open to anyone who is currently enrolled in classes at the University of North Dakota or has just been accepted by the college. There are also numerous scholarships that pick people themselves without writing a paper. It is based on academic performance and where your area of study is. Along with these scholarships, there are more offered on other sites. For example, I have applied for a Coca-Cola scholarship and multiple others for big companies. Periodically, my hometown high school will even do some for current college students. You just have to look around; there are endless opportunities for scholarships, and a great resource to start at is the Scholarship Central Website.
