If you received a scholarship, what all did it pay for? Just tuition? or book fees and residence. I’m counting on a scholarship to help me pay for college and i would like to know what all they cover.

What the scholarship covers varies just as much as the type of scholarships out there. Some scholarships are very specific as to what the money may be used for. Others are just a lump sum they send to the college and it is deposited into your account there.

I personally was awarded scholarships that helped with my room and board slightly, some that covered tuition and fees, others that helped with books, and a few that were just checks written out to me personally.
