Every one of these 331 carries the three numbers other lists leave out: how hard it is to win, how many hours the application takes, and what that works out to per hour. All verified against the official page. All free to apply.
Personalized matching
A directory cannot answer that. Solyo maps your student's GPA, state, grade level, intended major and activities against every eligibility rule on this page, drops the hundreds they cannot win, and returns only the scholarships that will move the needle for them, ranked by what each one pays per hour, with the deadlines on their calendar. Thirty seconds, against a weekend of reading rules by hand.
The easiest scholarships to win are not the famous ones. They are the 141 programs where qualifying students simply receive the money, no competition involved, and the awards whose eligibility rules keep the applicant pool small. These carry the shortest odds in the catalog right now; eligibility still decides which apply to your student.
