WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING:

"I found RaiseMe helpful because I really didn't have any direction towards schools and the cost was a huge concern going into it. RaiseMe opened my eyes to schools that are willing to give back to their students and that was very important to me."

Wynn P., Earned $54,000 from Susquehanna University

“RaiseMe was cleanly designed, easy to understand, and very rewarding right from the start. What I loved most about it was the fact that you could start earning micro-scholarships right away by simply entering in your grades and achievements.”

Jacob N., Earned a Full Tuition Scholarship from University of Toronto

“Raise me helped get me into a financial comfort zone that [allowed me to] focus on my studies and not worry constantly about how I’d be paying for school.”
Sean V., Earned $10,000 from Florida International University

Over 750,000 students have already used RaiseMe to find the right college and start earning scholarships in high school.
