Free Scholarship Search Service provides instant access
to
even the most unique sources of funding available.
(Chicago IL - January 31, 2001) Visit studentawards.com, a new and powerful scholarship search service that launched today, and within minutes, you'll have a personalized list of scholarships, bursaries, grants, fellowships and other forms of financial assistance at your fingertips.
"Research shows that millions of dollars of award money goes unclaimed each year, even though many students are in dire need of financial assistance," says Joe Freedman, CEO of Studentawards. "Part of the problem is that information on funding is not easily accessible. Our goal is to empower students. We want to provide them with the tools that will help them access even the most unique sources of funding so that they can achieve their dreams of higher education."
The new Web site provides instant access to an extensive database of college funding for the United States and Canada. Students complete a personal profile that is matched against the criteria of all the scholarships in the database. In minutes, a mailbox is generated for the student that lists all applicable scholarships. The database is updated daily as new scholarships become available and others expire. Listings include scholarship descriptions, application details and due dates. Studentawards.com also creates personalized application request letters for students to use when inquiring about scholarships.
"We believe that there is a real opportunity to help students finance their financial challenges and keep their debt load to a minimum. That's good news for students and parents and good news for the economy" says Freedman. Studentawards.com is actively working with corporations to encourage the establishment of new scholarships. The company is also committed to reinvesting a portion of it's profits towards it's own scholarship fund."
The scholarship search service is available free of charge at www.studentawards.com
