"As an out-of-state student, receiving a scholarship is incredibly helpful. It has allowed me to focus on my studies and not worry about financials. I definitely recommend joining SME; they help spread the word about upcoming scholarship deadlines and highlight the ones that mining students are competitive for. Another place I recommend checking out is Scholarship Universe."
