Going Merry Scholarships 4+

Super Easy!

This app is amazing and makes applying for scholarships easier than ever! When I first started I knew nothing about scholarships, but I learned so much through this app! It helps you out when you don’t know what something means by clicking on the question mark icon. Some scholarships you must go to an external site, but a lot of them you can do all the work in the app! (I like to do this part on my laptop on their website for faster typing). Thank you for making this stressful process extremely effortless!

No Success

This is my second year using Going Merry, and I have not won anything. Going Merry is a great way to see scholarships you *may* be eligible for, but their search bar is virtually useless, and it is almost impossible to find a scholarship specific to your course of study. I am frequently “matched” with inapplicable scholarships. As an elementary education major, all of the STEM scholarships are non-applicable and a waste of time. Even local scholarships are difficult to find, since I cannot search my state or county.

Additionally, I’ve applied to quite a few. My situation is very bad, and my writing abilities rather good, so why is it so hard, after 70+ applications, to get any aid?

If you have time to waste, by all means, use Going Merry and try for scholarships. I’ve found more success elsewhere. I suggest calling around and contacting your schools. Going Merry could be much more useful for people if the search refinement features was better, or if the search bar even worked.

It’s good but..

I have been using Going Merry for a long time now, and recently I haven’t logged into my account so I had tried, and apparently my account was lost so I had just made a new one. And it’s the same easy experience it’s really easy to get into the scholarships but there’s the same bug that has been there for the longest time, it always tells me an error that I didn’t end or the right information… even if I’m not answering any information I’m just pressing a button. I hope someone sees this review and fixes that bug because when I am entering information to my account, it won’t save because of that error and it is really annoying. Other than that it’s easy to find scholarships, but annoying, nevertheless.
