FastWeb

Description: Fastweb is perhaps the most widely known scholarship database on the internet. They list over 1.5 million scholarships on their website, but our experience is that many of those scholarships are “sweepstakes” style scholarships. Their site is heavily ad-driven, but their matches are usually pretty good. They email more frequently than the other databases we list, so they may be an excellent fit for the student that needs a few more reminders to hit all their deadlines.

Registration Required?: Yes
