A scholarship is a financial award given to students to help them pursue their education. Unlike loans, scholarships do not have to be repaid. They are typically awarded based on various criteria such as academic achievement, athletic ability, artistic talent, community involvement, or specific characteristics like belonging to a particular ethnic group or pursuing a certain field of study. Scholarships can come from a variety of sources including colleges, universities, private organizations, corporations, and government entities. They play a significant role in making education accessible to students who might not otherwise be able to afford it.
