Higher education is expensive and costs continue to increase. When paying for higher education, financial experts recommend considering “free money” options (money you don’t have to pay back)
like personal savings and scholarships or grants before taking out costly student loans.
The Show Me the Money Scholarship and Grant Search Engine connects Missouri students with scholarship and grant opportunities tailored to their skills and
interests. Through a partnership with the Treasurer’s Office and Sallie Mae, a nationwide consumer banking institution specializing in student loans, more than 6 million scholarships worth over $30 billion are
accessible in one place for Missouri students.
