When researching scholarships always remember scholarships are meant to be free. Never pay toward finding out or applying for a scholarship.
 
Ask someone about their profession. What is their job title? What specific duties do they have? Do they like what they do? If it sounds interesting ask if you could visit for a day.   
 
Volunteer-provide a service to others, many scholarships require some volunteering, this always looks great on a resume and you could get a terrific college reference out of the experience.  

Visit Cortland Career Works on Main Street in Cortland. They help teens and adults find employment.
