Since a lot of you who post here are going to or went to k state I thought you guys might be able to give some helpful advice on available scholarships and grants I can get.  I know there are a lot available but they make it difficult to find many of those that are available, but the general public and most people don't know about.  My cousin said she spent a whole day going around campus at ku and applying for scholarships and stuff.  She said that you have to be very pushy because most of the staff at the universities are little help.  But she said that there are tons of scholly's that nobody even applies for because they don't make it known to the general public and people just don't think about filling the applications out.  Anyways, I only talked to her a little bit about it and it is very hard to get a hold of her for more info so I thought I'd see if any of you guys had any suggestions about all that stuff.  I'd appreciate it! I'm posting this on the k state and UC NCAABBS boards so if you check those boards you will probably see this post again.  once again, I'd appreciate any advice you guys could give me! thanks!

Don't make it harder.  I'm taking classes at ku Edwards(Overland Park) campus.  I feel blasphemous enough.

    The very best.
Tmac, sorry can't help. I'm very lazy when it comes to those things.

I'd be better to post it on KSUFans.com aggieville board.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

27 and 3.8 (i have no idea how i managed that)

for our essay, we had to write about a book we've read in the past.  lol, the only book i had read in about a year happened to be friday night lights.

let's just say i'm one hell of an essay writer :chirp:
