impairment. For specific disabilities such as hearing or visual impairment,
please refer to
Winning Scholarships for College, “Scholarships for
Disabled Students.” Also, visit the
Heath Resource Center, Council for
Exceptional Children and DisabilityInfo sites for resources and additional

Please remember that your disability,
whatever it happens to be, gives you
eligibility for scholarships specifically
intended for disabled students. However,
you are still eligible for all other
scholarships and can apply for those as
well. This means you should use the
Free
Scholarship Searches and Other
Resources sections in addition to the
search strategies in the chapter,
“Research: Discovering Hidden
Treasures” in
Winning Scholarships for
College to find college money. Also,
review the chapter, “Finding Scholarships
in Your Backyard.”
