College and Scholarship Application Questions/Advice Thread

[smurfgirl]

While I was still living in New England, I used to do an annual presentations on applying to college and scholarships for local teams and at CT FIRST University Day. I know others have done similar presentations at the Championship Event and at their local areas.

As seniors start applying to college and scholarship applications, I thought it might be nice to create a place where they can ask their questions, and people with some experience in the process can help to answer them.

Good luck to all who are applying this year!

For FIRST scholarships when they ask for organizations/clubs should I include my FRC team or no?

Do you mean when scholarship applications ask you to describe the organizations and clubs you participated in, should you list your FRC team as one of those clubs? If so, I'd say yes, of course you want to include that.
