Graduated high school just last year, and was advised by one of my teachers who’s job it was to read people’s applications to just spam as many as possible. He explained that every year, many of them actually just go unclaimed due to nobody applying for them. I submitted several low effort applications and managed to walk away with around 7000$ in checks that could go straight to my bank account, and about 12000$ conditionally towards my tuition. Worst case scenario is that you waste about 10 minutes on each one. It’s a no brainer
