These are scholarships and awards that high school students can apply for. Most are for seniors; a few are open to younger students or to students headed to college in a particular state. Each listing quotes its eligibility rules from the sponsor's official page and shows when we last checked it. Deadlines and amounts can change between cycles, so confirm them on the official page before you apply.

Real scholarships never charge a fee to apply. If you are planning a season of applications, start with the scholarship season checklist, learn how to spot a scholarship scam, and read financial aid basics for grants like the Cal Grant.
