There is a million ways to pay for college

Scholarships for College
    
    College is could get really expensive, this is a fact. Since I was getting ready for college, I had to look to the most affordable career that would get me the best experience and qualification for the real world. I created my web page since I was in high school where I have a summary of my life, kind of a resume but not formal, where I have from education and sports activities and accomplishments to a draft of my professional career. Also, I included a bunch of scholarships that I applied in order to lower the cost of my education. 


    Since I created this web page that was initially for the mere purpose of having a simple way of showing others what my life has been about, I have been getting a lot of requests from scholarships to post their offers on my page. This a way of reaching out to young people that are looking at how to pay for their education and find it on as many pages that relate to us as possible. Since then, I added a whole section about it and I hope that it helps as many people as possible. Here are some tips and search engines that will help you all if interested.

Scholarships are gifts, they don't need to be repaid!
There are thousands of them, offered by schools, employers, individuals, private companies, nonprofits, communities, religious groups, and professional and social organizations.
The rule is free money first (scholarships and grants), then earned money (work-study), then borrowed money (federal student loans).

Typical Weekend of College Sailing Regattas

Image
     Sailing has been a passion for me since I was seven. The fact that I can still do it today and study my career is amazing. Being on a collegiate sailing team is more than just sailing with a couple of friends several days a week and then focusing on your career. It is more like most sports teams where your teammates become your best friends. Here is where traveling with the team becomes an experience that brings you some of the best memories of my college career.        All college sailing regattas are organized by ICSA which is the Inter-Collegiate Sailing Association. Also, the country is divided into several conferences that later in the year meet in bigger regattas. My conference is the South Atlantic Intercollegiate Sailing Association or SAISA . Most regattas we take a part of are within our conference, but we also go to inter-conference regattas.
