A scholarship is an amount of money that a student receives to reduce or even completely eliminate study costs. Scholarships are awarded to students who have achieved good school and\/or sports results: thus, it is a financial reward that helps with tuition costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In America, unlike in the Netherlands, scholarships are very common. Universities in America have a “jar of money” that they distribute in the form of scholarships to the best students. Bringing in the best students allows universities to compete with each other: on both an academic and athletic level, every university wants to be the best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are two different types of scholarships that are most common: academic scholarships<\/a> and athletic scholarships<\/a>. Athletic scholarships are issued by the athletic coaches, while the amount of academic scholarships are determined by the university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Would you like to know more about the possibilities?
