You may not realize it, but some of your talents probably qualify you for scholarships. You likely don’t realize this because many of these “talents” aren’t considered special or unique by those who possess them. Most often, they are seen by students as hobbies or extracurricular activities.
But, you know who does think they’re special? Scholarship providers.
Not only do they recognize your talents and skills are special, but they are willing to reward you by helping you pay for school because of them!
These types of talents and skills are unusual and, perhaps even random, but that’s part of what makes these scholarship opportunities easier for very specific students to qualify for – and win.
Also, don’t forget to add any random hobbies or lifestyle activities to your Fastweb profile because there are plenty more scholarships than those listed below!
Check out the following examples of scholarships for students with an unusual talent:
