FastWeb
http://www.fastweb.com/.
If you have access to the world wide web and are willing to fill in the online
forms, this service promises a free customized list of financial aid sources.
FastWeb is actually a searchable database of more than 400,000 private sector
scholarships, fellowships, grants, and loans from more than 3,000 sources for
all levels of higher education. First-time visitors have to register (first and
last name and a user ID), then complete a profile, including background and
fields of study. Registrants then receive a list of all currently relevant
funding sources. The registration information is stored and can be used on
subsequent visits. The entire sign-up process, and delivery of available funding
sources, can be a bit tedious: about five to twenty minutes, depending on the
connection speed. Approximately 500 new scholarships are added to the database
daily, so registrants can stay current. Provided courtesy of Financial Aid
