Scholly – An App to Help Students Find Scholarships
Screen Shot 2013-09-07 at 9.33.50 AMTuition and fees for universities are always going up, Scholly is a new app that could help students tackle those rising costs. Scholly is an app designed by college students for the purpose of helping students find scholarships that they are eligible for.
Using Scholly is a fairly straight-forward process. Input some information about yourself (parents can use it to input information about their children) then Scholly searches for scholarships that you’re eligible to apply for. In addition to typical information about grades, test scores, and field of study Scholly will ask for other information that makes you unique and potentially eligible for niche scholarships.
According to TechCrunch, the Scholly database is manually curated to weed out scholarships that are not legitimate offers. You can read more about the founders of Scholly in this TechCrunch article.
Scholly costs $0.99 which is a very small investment to make to potentially save lots of money in the long run.
