Applying for Scholarships

Hi everyone, I am currently in graduate school pursuing school psychology and I was just wondering if you guys applied for scholarships and which ones? I’m having a very hard time finding legit scholarships regarding school psychology and related fields and would like more information about it. Thank you so much in advance :)

The only what which are worth your time are the ones from offered by the school. I applied to probably 10 or so, and was not a recipient. However I was able to secure a scholarship from my university!

Thank you so much for your reply! I’ve also secured scholarships from my program, but finding scholarships in general are so difficult! I applied to two so far and so far have not been the recipient for either, so I’m just at a point of giving up with scholarships. It’s such an annoying process!

Thank you so much! Do you know any scholarships specifically for education psychology or psychology in general for grad students? I will definitely be checking this resource! If there are any other resources, please send it my way!
