Google Day 3
Goals for the day
To continue researching about scholarships
To research how to win scholarships
to wrap up my project
LINKS
http://www.bookrags.com/articles/42.html
http://www.scholarships.com/
Today I applied to a scholarship to learn everything from the process. They even asked me for my you tube account. It said that is really hard to win a scholarship. After applying to the scholarships I instantly received a notification that 2 colleges were interested in my resume.
When applying to scholarships they ask you your ethnicity, phone number, religion, political ideas, your college preferences, they ask everything so you have to be ready.
I also learned about two new types of scholarships.
The school based individual scholarship,
which is a scholarship normally handed out by a school to a person that has done a good thing and the need based scholarship which is a scholarship handed out to people that have low income.
For next Google day I want to know why it is important for schools to see your Facebook link.

New Info
(most of my time was spent with the collegue counselor asking questions about scholarships)
The athletic scholarships are regulated by the NCAA
The colleges give athletic scholarships because its a good publicity, and even though its hard to believe the universities highest revenue is from sports.
Why is this?
Well sports is one of the biggest sources of entertainment, specially in the us. So they want to invest to receive from donations etc....
The highest revenue in 2008 was over 123,000,000 dollars, JUST IN FOOTBALL.
My question for next class is: why do universities give academic scholarships.
