Where can I apply for scholarships? I know we have TA and fafsa available but I also want to apply for a scholarship. I am attending Trident University, and I do not know where to look for the scholarships, can you please guide me or give me some info?

Depending on when you served, there's post 9/11 GI Bill or look into Chapter 31. Contact the closest vet center on a local college campus to find more info. I am currently using Chap 31 and it pays mu tuition books supplies a stipend each month and gave me an awesome computer and printer. My VA rep is pretty awesome and she is located at our community college campus

If you are ARNG, you could be eligible for Federal Tuition Assistance (FTA). You just have to go to the GoArmyEd website and check if you are eligible. Another way is through ROTC if it is a program at your school, it’s full tuition for the duration of school you have left minus room and board. You’d have to be an Officer though if you choose to go that route.
