ScholarshipOwl is a digital platform that gets you on the fastest route to scholarships.

We collect existing scholarships you qualify for, bring them to you, and give you the tools to work on your applications in a smarter way.

All our scholarships are vetted

Not every scholarship makes it to our platform - first they go through a serious vetting process, so we know the scholarships are real. This means our users are applying for credible, reputable scholarships. It also means that, if you win - you WILL get the funds when you apply to the verified scholarships. The last thing we want is for you to put in the effort and get scammed - so we take extra precautions that this doesn’t happen on our website.

State of the art recommendation system

Once a week, our artificial intelligence system generates for you a list of recommendations - unique to every student on the platform - of all available scholarships and presents the ones with the best chances of winning. The criteria for these recommendations are: limited number of students who qualify, low number of applicants, high credibility for scholarship providers, and a close deadline. We did our best to stack the odds in your favor.

Get strategic with your scholarships

You can also strategize which scholarships to apply for on your own - we will give you the info on the numbers of applicants and due dates. Apply to the scholarships with less competition and you will easily maximize your chances. Simple as looking at a few numbers (we’ll show you which).

ScholarshipOwl membership

If you choose a ScholarshipOwl membership plan, you get all of the above and then some. The first of these extra benefits: your scholarship application forms will be submitted automatically - meaning, you won’t waste hours of typing in your info for EACH application. Many students give up on a scholarship simply because of the administration - even when they might have easily won it. Not anymore. Save your profile and it gets easily applied further on. Cool or what?

What else do the members get?

Additional tools that help you sort and filter scholarships. Sort our vast database based on deadline, amount range, number of applicants, credibility score and requirement types; pick and save scholarships you like, or ignore them and get them off your feed!

After you apply, you will get updates on your scholarship applications, so you’re always in the loop and know what’s going on! This feature alone is gold, since you won’t be wondering what’s happening with your applications and if they got lost in the process.

ScholarshipOwl is a must for any student looking to graduate debt-free - no matter the major or school level!
