Finding College Scholarships on Scholarship Experts...........

If you're looking for customized school scholarships results and don't care what you have to fill out to get there, then ScholarshipExperts.com is the scholarship information website for you. The profile information it gathers is extraordinarily detailed. You won't just answer questions about your intended major or career after graduation; you'll also be asked about current affiliations, parental affiliations, club memberships, extracurricular activities, GPA, SAT, ACT, military service, awards, and much more. In many ways, filling out this form is like filling out a college application!

The menus themselves are not terribly user-friendly. There is no easy way to skip down to your desired entry. Instead, you have to scroll down all the way, through a bunch of unrelated options before you can select the one you want. It can also be difficult to know where to look, particularly amongst the majors and career choices: economics is listed as Social Science - Economics, meaning that if you're looking for "economics" in the large alphabetized list, you won't find it unless you know to look for "Social Science - Economics."

You will come across ads in the process of registering for an account. But unlike other websites, the ads don't get in the way of accessing the site. You're not in much danger of accidentally clicking your way to an advertising site. They will use your information for advertising purposes after you have signed up, but you can easily avoid the obvious sales pitches that they'll throw at you during the signup process.

Once you are logged in, the interface is really user-friendly. There is a well-designed access portal, which offers easy browsing. There are four sections: scholarship search, financial aid information, college search, and profile information. The scholarship search is excellent, very detailed and very comprehensive. There are good tools that help organize your results, including a favorites list and a discard pile. The college search section is also a useful tool. It isn't as detailed and easy to use as the school scholarships part of the site, but the information is still helpful. The financial aid information portion of the site redirects you to the government-run student aid site.






•Cost: Free.
•Access: Access to need based and academic scholarships.

•Scholarship Search Login: Required. Login forms are detailed and tedious to fill out. There are a few ads, but they are easy to circumvent.

•Information Security: Poor. They will collect your information, and they will use it to send you advertisements from subsidiaries.

•Custom scholarship search results: Yes, thanks to the exhaustive info entered into your profile.
•Scholarship Information Organization: Great. You can reorganize the scholarship information by any number of categories for easy browsing.

•Direct links to scholarship sites: Yes. Convenient links let you apply to many school scholarships online.

•Quantity of Scholarships: Impressive. When searched with very strict criteria, some 100 results still appeared. The website seems to gather even school scholarships offered by other online resources, which can be a big advantage.

•Tip: Consider the benefits of filling out the whole login form versus leaving parts blank. If you go through the entire form, the process is long. Cutting down on how many questions you answer could make it much easier - just be careful you don't cut down too much, and be sure to provide all the required information.
