College Prep

While your primary focus should still be on your high school education, you can
start planning ahead now. Sign up for http://www.fastweb.com. You’ll have to
answer several questions about yourself, but once you do, you’ll receive
scholarship updates, job opportunities and even internship opportunities. You
can even opt to receive e-mail notification of these updates.

FastWeb is great because it allows students to get a heads up on scholarships
they are eligible for. That’s why you answer all of those questions at first. The
results you receive are completely customized to your background, ethnicity,
interests, extracurricular activities and GPA.

You can expect to frequent the site often. It also offers excellent financial aid
information and resources and articles to help you get abreast of what this whole
college thing is all about.

Why sign up during your sophomore year? This allows you plenty of time to
become familiar with FastWeb and all it offers. So, once it’s time for you to
actually apply to scholarships you’ll know the requirements like the back of your
hand.

Being prepared is the major theme here, in case you haven’t noticed. Make use
of FastWeb and all of its resources and you’ll definitely have a leg up on your
classmates.
