Scholarship Opportunity: Raise.Me - MNomadic - 10-06-2022
Just discovered this site for scholarships/"microscholarships" and thought I'd share it here. It looks like individual activities like achievements, work experience, completed courses, volunteer work, etc can be added and worth different amounts(stackable) at participating universities.
The following invite link is potentially worth $50 for anyone that signs up(I'm not sure if it would even work for me since I already have a BS but I would potentially be eligible for a $50 microscholarship as well for anyone who signs up).
Edit: put a new link below. If that doesn't work, try copy-pasting the url

I know a lot of people are on this site to save money and any extra potential scholarship money can help, especially for all the non-traditional students who have more life experience than academic experience.
Followup: looking into it further, it looks like most of the universities we talk aren't currently participating except for WGU and I think it's only for undergrad. For WGU specifically, it looks like the absolute max you could earn is about $1500/year if you maximize all the individual microscholarships like associates degree completed with 4.0, member of honor societies, having work experience, referrals, etc.
I don't think I would be eligible but for anyone else, feel free to check it out and hopefully you can get some scholarship money.

Interesting. Mine showed 39. I wonder why the difference...

May be because I am not from the states.
Changing the address to my virtual USA address unlocked all. Can you explain to me how can I get a discount on Outlier or how it works after I complete the task do I apply through the platform and they give a voucher or discount?

Thanks. I found this confusing at first. It seems you have to create an account to actually see much of anything. But it’s definitely interesting.

Unfortunately it looks like any outlier scholarships ended already.
