National scholarships are a waste of students’ time | Progressive U: "Because these sites are so popular, students from every high school, and in some cases college, around the nation are competing for the same exact scholarships. And when I say 'the same exact scholarships,' I am not exaggerating. The majority of scholarship providers on these sites only offer one or two scholarships per contest. On a good day, students might find a provider that offers ten...at the most. But even ten scholarships do not go very far, when one-million high school students are fighting over them."
