The main types of scholarships are academic scholarships and athletic scholarships. There are other types of scholarships like Minority scholarships, women scholarships and creative scholarships.
Then comes the category of fun scholarships.
The academic scholarship is for people with a high GPA. This scholarships are handed out to raise the average GPA of the college and make it earn some prestige.
The athletic scholarships are handed out to people that are good at a certain sport. They do this because the biggest college revenue is sports.
The minorities scholarships are handed out to smart people from other ethnicity  The colleges do this to have diversity in their campus. The same is with women scholarship.
There is also a scholarships for being good in a art. This scholarship is called the creative scholarship. This are normally handed out in schools that concentrate in art like Kent, of Julliard.
The community scholarship is for people who do things for the community. They receive scholarships normally is colleges nearby their area of community service.
The last but not least type of scholarship is the fun scholarship. In this category there are many types of scholarships like scholarships for lefties or for you tube channels. This are handed out mostly by companies.

Today I learned there are many different types of scholarships and many different ways to earn them. Even for being a lefty you can win a scholarship. This scholarships are given out to promote a company or college and to improve the revenue of a college.

One thing I want to know for next class is much money can you earn in a average scholarship.
