Overview
ScholarPath matches high school seniors and college students with scholarships and grants they actually qualify for. Students answer a quick profile questionnaire about their background, demographics, and academic plans, then receive a prioritized list of real scholarships they're eligible for—each with eligibility details and official application links. No more sifting through hundreds of irrelevant listings.
The MVP is a working web app with a landing page, intake form, and results page powered by a curated dataset of well-known grants. Every scholarship is verified and linked to official sources so students can apply with confidence.
Mission
What we're building
ScholarPath is an app that matches high school seniors and college students with the grants and scholarships they actually qualify for. A student fills in a short profile — gender, age, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic background, state, citizenship, intended major — and gets a prioritized list of real scholarships they're eligible for, each with eligibility notes and a link to apply. No more digging through hundreds of listings that don't apply to you.
Current focus
The MVP: a working web app a student can click through today. A landing page explaining the product, a short questionnaire, and a results page that returns a matched, prioritized list of scholarships from a curated starter dataset of well-known grants (each clearly labeled with official links to verify before applying — we never invent scholarships). After the MVP ships, we'll iterate based on how students actually use it; likely next steps are in-app applications, deadline reminders, and application tracking — but those wait for real usage.
