Student life moves fast. You’re getting that degree, exploring your interests, joining new organizations, working part-time, volunteering, and crossing things off of your bucket list. But while you’re maintaining your busy schedule, you may be leaving money on the table – literally.
If you don’t take a moment to update your Scholly profile, there will be scholarship matches out there that won’t find you. For example, tutoring kids at a community center isn’t just a great way to make a difference, but can also get you more scholarship matches from programs looking to sponsor students involved in their communities. Just think: what has changed in my life recently? Maybe your GPA has improved, or you joined a new club, or even changed your major!
At Scholly we are constantly adding scholarships to our database to bring our users the best opportunities out there. We’ve added 160 scholarships in September and the month isn’t even over! Try to make monthly updates to your profile, especially if your activities are shifting. Keep adding your latest accolades, skills, and interests. No matter what happens in your life, personal or school related, programs want to know.
We’ve just hit fall and scholarship programs are hunting for their next generation of awardees. Do yourself a favor and go back and tick all the boxes that tell your fullest story. The result could be thousands of dollars saved on your education.
