Help me! I'm very worried that I won't be able to find scholarships to fund college. I have a 3.1 GPA and have an ACT score of 19. I don't qualify for much, so could someone out there help me? Feel free to e-mail me with any advice, if anyone has any!

Go to your local community college and bring your GPA up. Work part-time and take out a loan if necessary.

Some scholarships are need-based, duggler, and have modest academic requirements. Also, sometimes scholarships are set aside for students in particular majors, of a specific ethnicity, etc. Check with the financial aid offices at the colleges you are looking at - they can point you in the right direction.
