What will happen to scholarship money that is left over from college tuition? I am getting ready to enter college and I have a state-funded scholarship that pays for my tuition at a state college (Louisiana's TOPS Program). However, I have many other things to pay such as books, housing (off-campus), and electricity bills, meals, gas, clothes, entertainment, etc. My question is this: If I get additional scholarships, will I be able to use that money to pay for what I chose? Does my college regulate that money, or can I use it to pay rent or bills? Do I receive the money or does my college receive it? What happens to scholarship money once college tuition is paid?

How do I set up a charitable scholarship fund in the state of Virginia? I am trying to establish a Student Art Scholarship in the name of my mother, Carol Campbell, who was a very well known, well respected and very beloved artist and teacher in Caroline County and throughout the state of Virginia. She painted and taught fine art watercolor, although she also used other mediums. Her work is in private collections across the country and around the globe. She passed away from lung cancer on March 28, 2006. I want to get the word out and get donations coming in so we will be able to present a well-funded monetary scholarship to a deserving art student for the 2006-2007 school year. I am planning to have high schools in the area advertise and announce the scholarship, but we have no funds as yet. Once the applications are in (after it's been completely set up), we will choose 3 individuals (preferably an art teacher, a local artist and an artist from out of state) to judge the students' work. I need some help and guidelines on how to get started. Thank you.

What can I do to heighten my chances at getting an academic scholarship to college? Okay, so I'm only 12 (entering 7th grade this year) and I would do nearly anything to receive a scholarship to college so I can study web design and graphic design (basically visual arts). I'm trying to hold a very high GPA until I graduate from college. I've always had a 4.0 my whole short education, and I have been told that there is more to getting a scholarship than good grades. What can I do (starting now) to really boost my chances at a scholarship? I know how silly this question sounds, and I have been laughed at for planning ahead so far, but I'd still like to know. Not to brag, but with a 125 IQ... I don't know if that'll get me a scholarship. *shrug* I really want a scholarship, but I don't want to have to CONSTANTLY be studying. I want to be able to spend time with my friends, too! Thanks a bunch, everyone who answered or is answering this question!
Is mispelling one word in a scholarship application that bad? I just entered for a scholarship, and I thought that I had everything spelled correctly (spell check, duh), but as it turns out, I spelled metonymy instead of monotony twice. Metonymy is a real word, but since the words are not similar at all, how much do you think it will affect my chances of winning if my ideas are strong? I know that it supposedly states that I am lazy, but if anyone who has won a scholarship before could tell me, that would be great. Thanks!
What do colleges do with your extra scholarship money? I have probably over $10,000 of extra scholarship money from outside things. If I don't spend them at the end of the year (say they are one time scholarships) does the college give it back to me in a check? What happens to it?

How does scholarship awards affect your financial aid? There is a book award scholarship at Chabot College that offers up to $300 dollars. However, it is a federal regulation that any possible money awarded to me will affect my financial aid. So how in all does it affect my financial aid?
