Browse and Match Me work without an account. EFF's own awards sit under Apply to EFF (My REACH). Confirm every award on the provider page.

At a glance

Best for
Students who want a free, no-account walk-up list of currently open scholarships with deadlines, and a quick Match Me quiz, without paying to apply.
Limitation
Match Me asks only a few questions (school level, state, school, major, GPA, identity chips) then still returns many niche or off-fit awards. In a 2026-10-04 sample, an FSU nursing undergrad profile got 60 campus-named FSU endowments (French studies, engineering, graduate titles) with almost no nursing filter; a NJ first-gen business profile got generic "open to college students" reasons that still included Canadian, space, and other niche awards. Listings are scraped from other providers and 26 university portals; EFF does not choose winners. Apply to EFF is separate and currently shows EFF awards closed. A generic high-school run (2026-10-04) still returned 60 of about 6,000 considered, including U.S. Army ROTC Nursing, Hispanic Heritage Youth Awards, Designli Women in Tech, APIA Scholars, and American Indian College Fund.
