Samuel and Marion Merrill Graduate Student Travel Grant

The scholarships on our platform are offered by independent scholarship providers. We scour the internet for scholarships, pre-screen and vet them, and then add them to our platform. In addition, we do offer some scholarships of our own, such as the You Deserve It Scholarship, as we want to do everything we can to support students.

The only way to win a scholarship is to apply! And the more scholarships you apply for, the greater your chances of winning. You’ll be matched to hundreds of scholarships in the ScholarshipOwl platform and if you can apply to a few scholarships every week, your odds of winning will be far higher.

ScholarshipOwl is proud to offer the $50,000 No Essay Scholarship to students, enabling us to provide direct assistance to students. Each month, we conduct a random draw and award four students $1,000 each. In December, there will be two additional winners selected, who will also earn $1,000 each. Throughout the year, an annual total of $50,000 will be awarded to students! When you sign up for ScholarshipOwl, you are automatically entered into the draw for this scholarship, and of course, there is no fee to participate.

Nearly 6 million students have used the ScholarshipOwl platform to apply for scholarships - in fact, we are the industry leader. And we have an excellent rating on TrustPilot, with the overwhelming majority of reviews giving us a rating of “excellent.”

We help students earn scholarships to help reduce their college costs. When you create your profile in our system you’ll be matched to hundreds of scholarships that you are eligible to apply for. You can apply for them directly through our platform - the search, match and application process happen all in one place. You’ll also gain access to our dashboard strategy tools, and AI-powered recommendations that we feel are the best fit for you.
