Fastweb.com is a website devoted to helping high school and college students find schools, scholarships, grants, and loans, all at no charge. From searching for the ideal school for you (St. John's College in Santa Fe, anyone?) to helping you find obscure scholarships you've never even dreamed of, Fastweb is immensely successful at what it does.
How it works
Fastweb works when a user fills out his or her profile, which includes information such as location, how far one is willing to relocate for college, interests, activities, and, of course, GPA. From there, you are sent to a results page every time you log in which displays scholarships according to many criteria such as ending date or colleges, which are chosen based on a mix of your interests, your successes in high school, and your choice of location.
If you've got a spare moment, even if you've got a full ride, Fastweb is worth a look over, as the administrators spend all their time professionally looking for scholarships and colleges and helping you to find them. Also check out their cool competitions and contests.
