Weird Scholarships

Normally I post about broader categories of college aid, but today I want to talk about weird scholarships.  These are funds set up just for people who have unusual talents, characteristics, or other distinguishing characteristics.

One of the best ways to find out about weird scholarships is to go to this site:  Find Free College Money! and register for free to look for all kinds of unusual, wacky, and downright weird scholarships.
