If you have plans to apply for a scholarship, being part of extracurricular programmes like sports, cooking, the performing arts, and more is an excellent way to build up your record.

That will make a difference with the panel.<\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"7cfc72fe-bed8-a7f1-c2da-6407e31fa4b1\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;7cfc72fe-bed8-a7f1-c2da-6407e31fa4b1&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Start early:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"3e5737ae-dbef-e411-f315-fda853f6528e\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;3e5737ae-dbef-e411-f315-fda853f6528e&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">It has been rightly said that early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.

Remember, you\u2019ll be coming up against a lot of equally talented students who more or less have impressive grades, too. Facts and figures won\u2019t help you distinguish yourself from the rest when everyone else has excellent scores.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"dd3f838d-3a39-e9fe-ce88-3888c7f6894d\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;dd3f838d-3a39-e9fe-ce88-3888c7f6894d&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Perfecting your essay, though, will help you make a mark and distinguish yourself from the rest. You can perfect your essay by doing something as simple as talking about your unique qualities, future dreams, what you plan to do with the grant, what you hope to achieve for yourself, your family, community, industry, etc.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"8b09a879-6bed-e751-dc70-4ec6c7c513e3\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;8b09a879-6bed-e751-dc70-4ec6c7c513e3&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Talking about these things will help you show who you are to the scholarship panel. It will give your application that much-needed human touch, thus helping you write an application that resonates with people.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"b887363a-a33a-31f8-0b12-c91259e3d99c\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;b887363a-a33a-31f8-0b12-c91259e3d99c&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u200d<\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"12224ea5-d277-5986-f95e-b56739c8c3ed\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;12224ea5-d277-5986-f95e-b56739c8c3ed&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Apply for multiple scholarships:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"5934cffa-26cc-b5dd-de3b-49ad5f0a779f\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;5934cffa-26cc-b5dd-de3b-49ad5f0a779f&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Try out for multiple regional and international scholarships. Applying for just one is the same as putting all your eggs in one basket. It can easily backfire if you\u2019re just relying on one.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"8057e67d-d0d9-3c0c-b131-51df11fb8dbe\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;8057e67d-d0d9-3c0c-b131-51df11fb8dbe&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">And while you\u2019ll need to customize your application to different programmes, the process should be more or less the same, along with the requirements. Apply to more than one programme to improve your chances of landing a scholarship. But that said, don\u2019t take on more scholarships than you can handle. Apply for ones that you are most likely to get.<br data-w-id=\"LineBreak\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;LineBreak&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\" \/><br data-w-id=\"LineBreak\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;LineBreak&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\" \/><br data-w-id=\"LineBreak\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;LineBreak&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"d2c63134-ad4c-8290-b0db-2eb7d2dddfb0\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;d2c63134-ad4c-8290-b0db-2eb7d2dddfb0&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Proofread your essay:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"706ae360-8e5c-201b-d637-8cefa872b004\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;706ae360-8e5c-201b-d637-8cefa872b004&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">When you have completed your essay, leave it alone for a few days before you go back in to edit and revise. If you have recently finished the piece, you might find it challenging to spot the mistakes or pinpoint any areas that need revision. That&#8217;s also why it\u2019s a good idea to work on your application early. Starting early will give you the time to leave the piece alone, let it settle, and then come back to it with a fresh pair of eyes. That will help you come up with something even better.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"73ddae7c-dd25-a528-dbaa-a6aee55ac84d\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;73ddae7c-dd25-a528-dbaa-a6aee55ac84d&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u200d<\/p>\n<div class=\"w-embed w-script\" data-w-id=\"d05dd370-dcea-c865-5125-9ec7daef2784\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;d05dd370-dcea-c865-5125-9ec7daef2784&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\"><\/div>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"ec051a1c-baf7-c362-d69f-27bdf21d738e\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;ec051a1c-baf7-c362-d69f-27bdf21d738e&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Ask for help:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"235c5aa9-4848-bc37-13c7-b92133bc38b4\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;235c5aa9-4848-bc37-13c7-b92133bc38b4&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">For even proofreading assistance or scholarship application guidance, reach out to someone you trust. It could be a friend, teacher, or family member. If you know that they have your best interests at heart, then ask them to look at your work. They could pinpoint sections that could use a great deal of improvement or even provide suggestions that could turn your work from great to extraordinary.<\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"1b0e97e4-f93f-82c6-e08d-80f61f7d0dcd\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;1b0e97e4-f93f-82c6-e08d-80f61f7d0dcd&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Be prepared for feedbacks:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"eb21d35b-33a7-88ca-4aad-7f306230d49c\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;eb21d35b-33a7-88ca-4aad-7f306230d49c&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">When you ask them to proofread your essay, be ready for criticism. People you know and trust will only give you constructive criticism. Rejecting that criticism or refusing to acknowledge your mistakes can be your biggest undoing. So learn the art of gracefully working on feedback.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"40eb5d5a-1a8b-f9e7-8523-c19daf781c26\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;40eb5d5a-1a8b-f9e7-8523-c19daf781c26&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u200d<\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"e455e56f-45c8-73e2-5d0a-6191bbc9c4c6\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;e455e56f-45c8-73e2-5d0a-6191bbc9c4c6&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Prepare for the interview in advance:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"997f1b73-591b-d9fe-67fb-943dcd09db96\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;997f1b73-591b-d9fe-67fb-943dcd09db96&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Most scholarships include an interview.

If you do well in the interview, then you have a much better chance of being chosen for the grant.<\/p>\n<p data-w-id=\"c0717361-b383-469d-764a-fd103d1b0b8e\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;c0717361-b383-469d-764a-fd103d1b0b8e&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Don\u2019t wait until the last hour to prepare for the interview you may or may not be called for. Keep a positive outlook and be smart with your preparations. Work on your speaking abilities and eye contact skills in the initial stages itself. Doing this will acquaint you with the reality of actual face-to-face interviews.<\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"33c0f6ce-e042-dbf9-b4ef-432710035da7\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;33c0f6ce-e042-dbf9-b4ef-432710035da7&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Do practice sessions:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"7b4b3656-21a4-19e0-261c-85469343da94\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;7b4b3656-21a4-19e0-261c-85469343da94&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Come up with a list of common interview questions that you think will come up when you face the panel.

You could do this with a parent or a friend. Have them toss your questions and answer them in the same way that you would with a panel. These practice sessions will work wonders to improve your confidence level.<\/p>\n<h4 data-w-id=\"6d04aeac-49b8-fc29-3862-702df5d46194\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;6d04aeac-49b8-fc29-3862-702df5d46194&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">\u25cf Dress in formal attire:<\/h4>\n<p data-w-id=\"5c8d40ff-e881-ab8d-f919-fc0eef9088e8\" data-wf-id=\"[&quot;5c8d40ff-e881-ab8d-f919-fc0eef9088e8&quot;]\" data-automation-id=\"dyn-item-blogs-description-input\">Showing up for an interview in formal attire will tell the panel that you mean business. It will help you communicate that this scholarship is important to you. It will also help you show that just like your dressing, you take your scholarship opportunity seriously. So make sure that you are wearing the best formal clothing you can find in your wardrobe.
