Alabama Scholarships

Alabama scholarships allow students to pay for school without, or with very little, student loan debt after graduation. Like the diverse nature of Alabama colleges, awards for students attending school in the Golden State cover the width and breadth of academic performance, extracurricular involvement, and fields of interest. Many Alabama colleges, both public and private, offer merit aid when admitting students. Applicants will also find Alabama scholarships from outside organizations, such as charities, businesses, and clubs and organizations. Searching for scholarships locally or within Alabama will provide you with close-to-home awards.
