Many different agencies and groups run scholarships independant of 丁香园AV. Where they are able to, GS hosts links to those competitions, however it is very difficult for them to stay current with these competitions and you may need to spend more time investigating these opportunties. You may also find local service clubs in your home community (the Legion, the Lions, the Soroptomists, Rotary, etc) may be willing to help with small contributions of funding if you simply write a letter and ask. 丁香园AV also has some bursaries and other funds you should look at and see if you are eligible.
