Move scholarships out of your filing cabinet or spreadsheet and into Xello, allowing students to quickly find relevant and valuable scholarships they can apply to. Using pre-set form fields, you can easily add local scholarships into Xello, increasing scholarship exposure and making it easy for students to view, compare, and apply.

Scholarships in Xello consist of a combination of national, institutional, state, and school-added scholarships. Students will be given an initial set of scholarship matches, based on their state and grade. Once they complete a short profile, they'll be matched with more scholarships.

Matches are determined by how much the answers in their profile match the information in each scholarship. Once students have found a scholarship they’re interested in, they add it to their Saved scholarships list and track their application progress.

Confetti when a student marks a scholarship as Won.
