Has anyone heard of..

<p>Have any of you guys heard of Fastweb? I was at the mall and spontaneously sparked up a conversation with this girl who was working there. She told me that she was able to earn a $20,000 scholarship from this website. I don't mean to be pessimistic, I've just never heard of it before. Is this a legitimate website? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Yes it is a popular scholarship search engine. z inch is a better site in my opinion though.</p>

<p>Yes, it’s a legitimate site that lists gazillions of scholarships that are available to entering college students.</p>

<p>You can certainly go that route, but there’s a lot of competition for those awards. Your time would be better spent carefully compiling a list of colleges where you’d be eligible for automatic or competitive merit awards from the schools themselves.</p>

<p>See the threads at the top of the financial aid forum regarding “automatic” and “competitive” grants.</p>

<p>thank you for your help guys!</p>
