NOTE TO WHERE I GOT THIS SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION: I found these scholarships in Marianne Ragins’s book, WINNING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR COLLEGE, FOURTH edition: AN INSIDER’S GUIDE. ISBN #978-0-8050-9947-8

Marianne Ragins won more than $400,000 in scholarship money, and she has written a comprehensive book.

I have checked this book out multiple times from the Nashville Public Library.

I recently purchased a used copy off of Amazon.com for about $4.98.
