I am a student. So you can expect me to know a little about scholarships and grants.  I am very amazed at the numbers that most websites like FastWeb post regarding the cumulative amount of those scholarships. I am even more surprised that I ( going to a prestigious Uni. ) cannot find anyone who actually qualified for them. Now I am actually a good student with decent grades, but I received scholarships from my institution and the federal government.

I am not saying that they exist, but to see how a single website claims that there are 1.3 billion dollars in total for education alone, that seems little off. I actually searched the entire website, and found that the scholarship  database is only 4 pages. This included the 500 or less scholarships too. In actuality, they include the money * you would get * if you were to join the military or some government bond. Whats you say in this matter? Have you received or * have been deceived* from these scholarship people?
