It depends on the scholarship. But I honestly don't think you can pay rent or your bills with that money. Maybe your books, since those are directly involved with your schooling. In general though, I think that any scholarship money you get would go straight to your schooling.<br><b>References : </b><br> Maybe. It depends on the scholarship.

These are usually not related to the college you're attending. Most scholarships are paid directly to the college. In most cases, you get "financial aid Christmas" -- that's a day each semester when we get all of the excess financial aid money in our financial aid account. ☺ Caution though - many scholarships are need based. That means if you get another scholarship that covers cost, you no longer have "need" and drop that one. Know too - very often, if there is excess money (above tuition) in your financial aid account, you can charge your books to that account at the campus bookstore. There may be an application fee to allow this - look into it. Otherwise, you have to buy your books out of your pocket well before 'financial aid Christmas'.<br><b>References : </b><br> Some scholarships are paid directly to you.

Some will actually allow the college to give you the remainder amount in the form of a check while other scholarships will be applied to future college tuition bills. The best option is to complete the FAFSA form because it will tap into need based financial aid including the work study program. I have included some websites below containing great information.
