Finding Scholarships that Fit: Rebecca Lippman will walk participants through the development of 10 - 25 customized search terms for getting the most out of personalized internet searches and addresses the complications of personal bias and online search processes in response to audience-based queries. Attendees will walk away with a 3 step-process for online searches and a better sense of how public institutions, private donors, and large organizations advertise scholarship opportunities.

Developing Unique Essays: Participants will learn how to develop a series of interchangeable written “modules” that can be used to address the most popular aspects of multiple scholarship essay prompts.
