A day ago I received a letter directed towards me as an engineer from “USA Scholarship Services”. It claims to be a scholarship service for engineering services. They claim to assist 250 engineers every year. The Director of Scholarship Services is Ike Onwo. The catch is that there is a $25 processing fee, but is refunded if you are not awarded anything above $1000 for the 2006/2007 school year. Is this a legitimate program or has anybody heard of this service?

kinda legit, kinda not. they will give you about the same info as your federal financial aid forms. the $1000 guarentee can be money you need to get from student loans. any anyway, for any of the aid you still have to complete the FAFSA to get the money. save your $25

I agree. Never pay for a scholarship.
