College Scholarship FAQ
College Connection CollegeScholarships.com was founded by a group of parents who went through the college financial aid process with their children and saw a need to improve the process. We have been posting new free scholarships, monthly, since 1995.

Is there any truth in the statement that billions in Scholarships go unclaimed every year?
No, that is simply not true. Most of the scholarship programs are very competitive. This is just a scare tactic some search services use to entice people to use their service. We do not believe there is even one million in unclaimed scholarships on any given year.
The bottom line on this is that someone is receiving the scholarship money and it can't be you unless you apply. If you do not use our service use another service or buy a book, or visit your library, but whatever you do, start applying.
