In the big bad world of college searching and funding every student will ask the question “how much?” This question almost always refers to both how much it actually is to go to a school and how much scholarship said school will allot them. However, most students do not know about outside-of-school funding, whether it be state or private funding. The reason being is because of the hassle of the applications for said other scholarships and thus students leave a great asset and well of wealth to the wayside. But now there is a brilliant App/Website designed by a student to help students with their funding needs. Scholly is the brilliant and much needed brainchild of Christopher Gray. Being a low-income student himself, Gray searched for months during his latter years of high school applying for various scholarships until he had racked up enough cash to cover all college fees and then some. The process he went through however, was not an easy one nor a quick one. Thus, Scholly was born. Designed to easily connect students to private scholarships, Gray and his co-founders Nick Pirollo and Bryson Alief came up with an 8 parameter algorithm for easy scholarship connections. Even though it is practically a brand new company, Scholly has helped give out over $20,000,000 to 600,000 users since early 2015. From Chris Gray and me to my fellow broke classmates who are required to write comments; you’re welcome.

Wow! Up until a few weeks ago, I had never even heard of Scholly so I am so impressed by what is done. I have used FastWeb to look for scholarships but their search results are not perfect and I found that I did not even qualify for many of the matches that showed up. Scholly sounds much more user friendly and more specific in the results that appear. Kudos to Chris Gray for coming up with a scholarship program that works well for a wide variety of students! He found a problem that he personally experienced and had knowledge on and created a solution to that problem, knowing that many other people have that same problem.
