What Are Your Resources?

Your main resources are your gifts and talents. There is no one in the world that is like you. You will make an important contribution to this world with these gifts and talents in the years to come.

However, before you can take a job, you need a period of training in the university. Education in the university is not cheap. You and your family will need to save for years to prepare for your college fund. Therefore, your greatest supporter and resource is also from your family.

To help you supplement your college fund, let me share with you some information on financial aid and scholarships. These are preferred ways of funding your education because you do not need to repay them after graduation.

There are many universities tha are actively searching for international students, and will give scholarships to attract international students. You can go to InternationalStudent.com to search for them especially if you are keen to study in the US. There is also a section on international student study loan which you may be interested to check out. You can also contact Edugate and let us help you.

Your financial aid and scholarships will be awarded mainly based upon your SAT or ACT score. So you will need to work hard to ensure a good score. If you are exceptional in athletic, musical or artistic abilities, they will also help you in the application of your scholarship.

There are several free scholarship databases available online. The FastWeb scholarship search is the largest, most frequently updated scholarship database. If you supply an email address, they will notify you when new awards that match your profile are added to the database.

Of course you can also apply for a student loan from the bank. But you should try to keep your education cost down so that you will not be spending your salaries paying for your loan after graduation.
