FinAid - Scholarship Scams

The urgent need for scholarships is an open field for hacks and scams. The most basic rule is that if a trust or a grant is asking money from you (for example - in order to enroll you) - it's probably a scam. You shouldn't waste your money on fee-based scholarship matching services. You won't get any better information than you can get from the free services available on the Web.
