Books that can provide scholarship help
One of the best ways to find information about scholarships is to find the right books. Unlike using the Internet to find information, books are helpful because they present information in a more organized and detailed manner. If you are not interested in a nationally competitive award - and even if you are - these books can provide information above and beyond what this site has to offer in terms of prestigious awards and general scholarships alike.
ONCA's goal is to help Ohio University students achieve recognition and get financial help for continuing their educational experiences. However, if you are looking information on scholarships other than the 12 featured on our site, the books listed below - most of which cost less than $25 - might be able to help. In addition, if you know of any other good sources (books or otherwise) for scholarship information, please pass them along to us!
