Scholarships360 is very excited to offer our very own exclusive scholarships for deserving students at every level of their educational journey! We are grateful to be in a place that allows us to help make higher education more financially affordable for those seeking a helping hand. 

A little history about Scholarships360 first: S360 started out as a small “side project” by brothers Will and Brian Geiger when they were 21 and 16 years old. When searching for scholarships as first-generation students, they quickly found that legitimate scholarships were far and few between. Will and Brian started emailing a vetted “daily” scholarship to an ever-growing list of subscribers.  

Fast forward to today: Scholarships360 offers scholarship seekers a data-driven platform that matches them with vetted scholarships. We reject over 80% of the scholarships reviewed, so scholarship seekers can spend their time applying for high quality scholarships.
