Either you selected another one, wish to transfer, or want to quit completely...go talk to someone at admissions and/or your advisor to be sure you do it the right way! Housing or financial aid may need to be involved, don't accidentally be on the hook for more than you need to be.

Finding local scholarships in your area via other area schools high school guidance counselors your high school, others in your own county, those in counties around you, those in the big cities near you, those near the college you plan to attend.

Go look up facebook pages, instagram pages, using x, tiktok pages, or whatever you can find from local guidance counsellors! Look around the actual offices themselves. If you're in college, look at bulletin boards, flyers, or walk over to the financial aid office and ask them if they know about any that aren't posted on the website. You can also go to a high school's website and look up guidance or current seniors or scholarships. Just go google and looking. You may find one that's BARELY advertised and when less people enter it your chances go way up!!

I let my hair grow out to natural about 3 year ago and it took a while. I had said I wasn't going to color it again, but I also didn't know my child was going to go to hair school. Once she passed the first 12 weeks she hit the floor and I wanted to be her first client. I could have just done a cut, but nah - I wanted to go all in on having a hairstylist daughter and let her get some of her nerves out. She did an amazing job.

I had told her I wanted low lights because I wanted to keep my gray. I didn’t want that crazy grow line to happen, but I wanted to add some depth to the color. I also showed her one of the last haircuts I liked and told her I wanted it similar to that. I feel both objectives were met. I’m very proud of her!! Also worth noting, she gave a pretty good scalp massage during the shampoo. However; my ear did get to take a bath, but it’s not the first time that’s happened while getting a shampoo so I understand. It took a while & she was nervous, but she didn’t get very much instructor intervention. ❤️

Here are some before and after photos from my visit.

I love the website Slickdeals! I found a great deal on a movie night that I feel would be perfect for a college student or anyone who loves to go to the movies, but that sticker shock now-a-days keeps you at home.

How to look for hyper-local scholarships in your area! Look at electric company scholarships, credit union scholarships, club scholarships. Google your city name and scholarship. I'll show you what I know about soon in a post, but small towns have some that you may have to ask around about. Ask your friends and family and keep your eyes out for them too.

Google your city's name and scholarship, your credit union's name and scholarship, your electric company and scholarship, your church and scholarship. Ask around. Ask the city hall. Ask your friends and family -- keep your eyes peeled at school. Keep looking!!
