** Lead generation scholarships will require students to sign up for an app or website and require minimal (if any) application requirements.
***Idea harvesting scholarships will require students to submit blog posts or other materials that companies may use for marketing purposes.

How to win scholarships for communications

Communications is all about getting your point across, and in this case, you’ll want to convey you’re the best fit for the scholarship you’re applying for. Don’t be afraid to show off your writing with a winning essay or highlight your skills in a resume. We can also help you start and end your scholarship essays and write a “Why do you deserve this scholarship?” essay. Find scholarships that fit you, so that you can showcase your passion for communications and what drives you to pursue it. 

Resources for students studying communications

National Communication Association (NCA)

This organization is open to students, teachers, and practitioners alike! The NCA holds an annual convention and provides programs and tools for people to explore. It includes three student organizations for students to choose from:  Lambda Pi Eta, Sigma Chi Eta, and NCA student clubs. They also have a career center to advise members on the job market, and the NCA offers grant opportunities to help members pursue their education. 

Communication organizations at school

You can get connected with your peers or network with mentors by participating in organizations on or around your campus. For instance, some campuses have a faction of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) that allow guest speakers and discuss popular campaigns and methods. 

There are also other societies and organizations for the varying divisions of communications, such as the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) or the American Advertising Federation.  

Summer communications programs 

If you’re interested in getting started early, there are multiple communications summer programs that you can get involved in. Some of them are geared toward high school students, such as the LaunchX Entrepreneurship Summer Program, which means you can figure out if this is the major for you before you even get on campus. 
However, there are still communications programs offered for current college students that want to stay on top of their game during the summer like the St. John’s College Summer Academy.        

Frequently asked questions

Should I fill out the FAFSA if I receive scholarships?

Absolutely! You should always complete your financial aid applications whether it’s the FAFSA or the CSS Profile. Both help colleges determine the amount of aid to give you and potentially offer you scholarships.

Can my job or internship help pay for college?

Yes, some jobs and internships offer a tuition reimbursement program, so that their students can attend college. It can be a good discount off your tuition along with any other scholarships or financial aid you receive.
