I've received countless emails inquirng about scholarship opportunities available for Caribbean students. The reality of the situation is that there is very little scholarship money available to Caribbean students from United States funding sources. The best way to work around this is to seek out universities that target Caribbean students. I've listed these universities in a previous posting.
I will provide you guys with a list of organizations and websites that are good places to seek out scholarships for Caribbean students who wish to study in the United States.
ScholarshipExperts.com This is a free site and you can specifically search for scholarships for International Students.
International Education Financial Aid This is yet another free site for you to seek out scholarships for International Students. Please bear in mind that as Caribbean Students intending to study in the United States you will be considered as "International Students".
Rotary International Most of the islands of the Caribbean have a Rotary International chapter. This organization provides limited international student scholarships.
FastWeb I know that many FastWeb scholarships are geared toward United States citizens but if you do a thorough search, you will stumble across a few scholarships that are open to International Students.
I will provide more advice in college posts about getting funding from your local organizations to study in the United States or Canada.
