　　全文翻译

　　有成千上万种私人企业提供的奖学金实际上也很值得关注。(1)在2006年，由于3600多家沃尔玛商店和山姆连锁店中的每一家都提供两个lo00美元的奖学金名额，沃尔玛商店将给中学高年级学生提供700多万美元的奖学金。获奖学金者是根据其优异表现及经济需求程度而决定的。申请表在各店面中都可以获得，申请的最后时限是2月1日。胜出者将在4月份得到通知。(2)各地的沃尔玛奖学金获奖者将自动获得全州竞赛的参赛资格，有机会再赢得4000美元奖学金，奖金总额将达到5000美元。各州的胜出者将自动进入一轮全国性评选，再次胜出者将获得额外的20000美元的奖励。沃尔玛同时还为其员工及子女提供高达100万美元的奖学金。

　　另外一个选择就是致电本地的J·P·摩根分部或者华盛顿互助基金分会来获取家庭财产抵押贷款。由于目前利率仍然很低，所以这个方法也值得考虑，特别是选择该方法的话你可以在交税的同时偿清利息。

　　许多人都错误地认为孩子进入大学之后再来申请经济资助为时已晚。但实际上，学生们在受教育过程中的任何时候都可以申请经济资助。(3)例如，微软公司为考上四年制本科攻读计算机科学和相关技术学科的大学生提供50多万美元的奖学金。基于经济需要的一揽子资助计划可能每年都发生变化，因为它需要学生们在校期间每年都重新申请。哈佛大学经济资助办主任莎莉·多纳玉说，“如果收入降低，那资助份额很可能提高。”

　　(4)如果一个学生获得的资助已达最高额，或者所在的学校没有其他资金可供资助，这个学生就可能得不到更多的资助了。同样地，如果在一个财税年当中一个家庭的收入增长的话，这个学生在下一学年就有可能无法获得和上年度同样多的奖学金。而与经济资助不同的是，能否获得基于学生优异程度的奖学金，比如说体育奖学金或者学术奖学金则可能取决于学生的学分绩，而非该家庭支付学费的能力。

　　(5)由于资助资格的依据是上一个财税年度，必须在1月份提交资助申请，为了提高2005年获得更多资助的机会，现在再做任何财务方面的规划，可能太迟了。但在未来，家长们在为孩子申请经济资助时也要考虑用他们的一部分积蓄来支付高昂的利息和贷款，或者将更多的资金投入资产计划中，比如说个人退休金或401(k)计划等，这些项目都是不计入资助计算的。
