No total, no dollar figure, no promise. Just what we cover and where we are thin,
so you can decide before you spend anything.
What "verified" means here. Someone opened the sponsor's own page and read it —
not a listing site. The date it was checked is shown on every award, and awards we could not
confirm are labelled as unchecked rather than quietly included.
Which fields do the scholarships reward?

Business & finance9
Health, social work & teaching8
Where we are thin, plainly. Health, social work and teaching total 8 awards.
Business is 9. If your student is heading for nursing, education or social work, we do not serve
them well yet. We would rather say so now.
Internships and paid roles
Counted separately — work is experience, not tuition, and we never add the two together
STEM, and mostly college-level44
Everything else6
Only 2 are open to high school students. If internships are what you came for, this part is early.
Two things we will not do
Quote a total dollar value you could "win"never
Pad the count with no-essay sweepstakes22 flagged
A guaranteed pool figure is the first red flag of a predatory consultant. Lead-generation
awards stay in the catalog, labelled, so nobody researches them twice.
Takes about 10 minutes. No payment yet.

Example only — this is the screen a family sees once we know their situation.
The number grows as they answer, because we ask the disqualifying questions first.

8th grade. Three more are not open to her until 10th. We will tell you when each one opens.
