FAQ

When do I apply for college scholarships?

Each school has their own timeline — so check yours — but in general, most schools will have you apply in the winter or spring for the following year.

Is applying for college scholarships worth it?

Yes! Colleges provide over $60 billion in financial aid to students each year, nearly 10 times what traditional scholarships offer. That means you’re 10 times as likely to get that scholarship.

How should I prioritize which scholarships to apply to?

To prioritize your scholarship applications, think about which scholarships you have the best chance of getting (the most specific ones, with more than one winner), the ones due the soonest, and the ones that are awarding the most money.

Tip: We recommend you make a schedule for yourself to follow to stay organized and on track throughout the scholarship application season! You can always ask a Mos advisor for help.

How do I know if I meet the requirements for a scholarship?

Each scholarship has a set of requirements: specific factors that determine whether or not you're eligible to apply. You can visit the scholarship site to find this information, or fill out the Mos quiz to be automatically matched with scholarships you qualify for! FYI: the more information you share with Mos, the better scholarship matches Mos will make!
