There are literally hundreds of thousands of scholarship opportunities in the United States. That’s a lot.
Extra cash to pay for college is great. But searching for the right scholarships seems like it could be a full-time job! Where do you even begin?
No worries. We’ve got your back.
Our partnership with Red Kite, a scholarship matching engine, allows Tallo student users to match with over $20 billion in scholarships. And it’s really easy. We give you a Tallo profile to show yourself off. Red Kite reviews your profile in order to plug you into the right scholarship opportunities. Great teamwork, right? Like I said, we’ve got your back.
And speaking of your profile, here’s a tip: the more complete it is, the better scholarship matches you’ll get with Red Kite. There may be a scholarship somewhere out there that was created for someone just like you. So be sure that your profile is telling your whole story!
