Apparently the University of California, San Diego, should be able to tell you:\n\n"FIVE UCSD STUDENTS ARE RECIPIENTS OF IRANIAN-AMERICAN SCHOLARSHIPS \n\nThree 1998-99 seniors and two sophomore students at the University of California, San Diego, are the first beneficiaries of the Iranian-American Students Scholarship Fund established by a group of citizens and UCSD alumni in the local Persian community. \n\nShahri Estakhry Aghassi, chair, said that although individual scholarships are awarded by many colleges, this is the first scholarship fund for Iranian students established by an entire Persian community. "We hope our efforts can be an inspiration for other areas to start a similar fund," she noted. \n\nThe five recipients were selected from 35 candidates by UCSD’s Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships and Honors. Each will receive $1,000 in scholarship support from donations made to the fund by the Persian Cultural Center, the Association of Iranian American Professionals, and Qualcomm Inc. \n\nThe recipients included: \n\nRambod Amirnovin: Starting his senior year in the fall, Amirovin is majoring in molecular biology and plans a career in medicine. Active in volunteer work, he is founder and president of United Students for Veterans Health, an organization that assists at the V.A. Hospital. A native of Iran, he hopes one day to be a published poet. His scholarship was made possible through the generosity of the Persian Cultural Center. \n\nParham Holakouee: Starting his sophomore year in 1998-99, Holakouee is majoring in biology and hopes to become a neurosurgeon. He spent three months last year as a volunteer at Cedar Sinai Hospital. He is an accomplished pianist and was a star basketball player in high school. His scholarship was made possible through the Iranian-American Students Scholarship Fund (also known as the Mother Scholarship Fund). \nRamtin Mahboubian: Starting his senior year this fall, Mahboubian is majoring in computer science and plans a career in programming. Born in Tehran, he moved to Israel, alone and age 17, and 10 years later was reunited with the rest of his family in the U.S. Once here and with very little resources, he strived to learn a new language and culture and achieved outstanding academic honors, first at Mesa College and later at UCSD. His scholarship was made possible through the generosity of Qualcomm Inc. \nSanaz Majd: Starting her senior year in 1998, Majd is majoring in Animal Physiology and Neuroscience. Her volunteer activities include the Choices Teen Clinic, the UCSD Health Center and coordination of food drives and soup kitchens for the homeless. She plans a career in medicine. Her scholarship was made possible through the Association of Iranian American Professionals. \n  \n\nNoureddin Nourbakhsh.: Starting his sophomore year this fall, Nourbakhsh is majoring in bioengineering and plans a career in medicine. His volunteer activities have included Model United Nations Conferences from 1993 to 1997 and the Walk for Peace in 1996. He is an accomplished athlete and has a passion for music, working as a disc jockey for nearly a decade. His scholarship was made possible through the support of the Iranian-American Students Scholarship Fund."

I have included some scholarship sources for Native American scholarships. Also each scholarship would provide information on how to apply and prove things. Also, you might find some scholarships at the individual colleges geared toward Native American students. In addition, the individual tribe might have scholarship information, so it is an idea to check with them. I also have given some tips sources along with free membership scholarship search websites.\n\nhttp://www.collegeanswer.com/\nhttp://www.finaid.org/\nhttp://www.supercolelge.com/\nhttp://www.collegeview.com/\nhttp://www.collegenet.com/\nhttp://www.fastweb.com/\nhttp://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ (Tap need based financial aid)\nhttp://www.scholarshipexperts.com/\nhttp://www.findtution.com/\nhttp://www.brokescholar.com/\nhttp://www.gocollege.com/\nhttp://www.clubaward.com/\nhttp://www.studentawards.com/

I think that you should sign up at scholarships.com and they ask you a series of questions to determine the scholarships for you. There are also a couple of other sites that I am sure you can find by typing it into a search engine.

Try these two websites, both are free:\n\nhttp://www.fastweb.com\n\nhttp://www.scholarships.com\n\nMy daughter is a rising junior in high school, so we are working on finding every scholarship opportunity possible even though she has not yet decided on a college and both these websites will provide you with lots of information, tailored to your specific needs based on profile questionnaires that you complete.  You might also try College Parents of America's website at:\n\nwww.collegeparents.org\n\nYou can sign up for free newsletters which have lots of good information and tips.  If there is a specific college or university that she is interested in attending, she needs to contact the admissions office and arrange for a campus tour, and to speak with an admissions rep about her specific needs.  Good luck, and happy hunting.
