Paying for college is a task most people are faced with during their lifetime. Scholarships and grants are the best way to obtain this money. Some scholarships are specifically for different things such as grades, gender, ethnicity, and even eye color.  Acquiring a scholarship can be a straining process, but it is well worth the work and effort to be able to attend college for less.
