Students, especially those who enroll in private colleges or universities, often apply to many different scholarship programs to supplement whatever financial assistance their parents or the government can give them. These scholarships are awarded in varying amounts, ranging from a few hundred dollars a semester to full tuition. They are awarded based on academic performance, Christian character, participation in a Christian or Baptist church, and more. Some scholarships are limited to students who pursue a specific track of study, while others must attend a specific type of school, like a Southern Baptist school. There are Christian scholarships for undergraduates and graduate students, to be used for tuition, living expenses, books and more.
