Editorial policy

Last reviewed: 2026-09-25

We review scholarship search sites as an independent directory. Ads and optional email keep the site free. Money never buys a higher Our rating.

Independence

Listings are not endorsements. Sources do not pay for placement or for changes to Our rating. We decide what to list and how to describe it based on what we can verify.

How money shows up

We may show labeled display ads and offer optional email updates so the directory stays free to browse. Details are on how we make money. Ads and email never buy a higher Our rating or preferred placement in results.

Cost is metadata, not a score input

Free, freemium, and paid are factual labels on the source. Cost is not an input to Match Power, Scholarship Quality, Ease & Time to Value, or User First.

What we publish

When we have enough evidence, we publish Our rating plus Best for and Limitation notes. Ratings can update after committee review when evidence changes or the rubric version moves. We do not claim every live score is a final, committee-signed result for all time.
