User Reviews for RaiseMe - College scholarships

Ehhh... Has potential

In the beginning, I was extremely excited to use this app. The interface is smooth and instructions are very clear. But my excitement started to wear off after running into the GPA issue and after reading other reviews i can see people are having similar issues. My unweighted GPA on the app is way lower than what it says on my official transcript. And though I know the GPAs are calculated off of “core courses”, that factor is creating a useless purpose of the app for a lot of users. Because the GPAs are so low, people can’t use the app correctly or be provided with accurate scholarships. I also had an issue with the credits. My school provides 5 credits for A-G requirements and 2.5 credits for electives and I also felt like the lack of credit representation had an effect on my GPA. I really do like the app but I just find no purpose of using it if I’m not receiving accurate opportunities that could help my future.

Scholarships!! 😀❤️

This app is amazing! I am the kind of person who has been searching for scholarships since I was in 5th grade (which are very hard to find btw), and now as a Freshman most of the scholarships are targeted towards juniors and seniors. This app allows you to look for colleges that are connected with RaiseMe, and get information about applications and deadlines. All you have to do is type in your grades, awards, volunteer service, and work experience and you can receive scholarships from it. The day I signed up I raised about $2,000 for a college I'd like to go to. The other thing to remember with this app however, is that the scholarship money you raise will only be saved until you apply, are admitted, and enroll in the college. I 110% support this app and recommend it!!!

Awesome

This app is truly amazing and very beneficial to earn money from colleges, as well as learn about different colleges in general. I just started yesterday and have already earned thousands from multiple colleges. I highly recommend using it. With that said, there are a few things that I think could be worked on. First, it would be amazing if more prestigious colleges were added and offered micro scholarships( and just more in general). But i know that is difficult. Also i think it would be nice if the grade scale went above a 100 because my school gives extra points to final semester grades for honors and AP classes. Because of this i have over a hundred on my report card for several classes. Also, the app does not let you add jobs that you still work at currently. But otherwise this app is amazing and helps you learn about colleges, while earning money from them.

I basically have a full ride to a college and I'm only a sophomore

Wow this is really amazing and takes a lot of stress from my shoulders. I have always had good grades and it really motivates me to see actual results from them on this app. I basically followed every college that was giving out micro scholarships and there is one that is willing to give me $80,000 to go to their school, which would cover almost all of my years at their college leaving me only around 6k to pay per year. However since I’m going to be a junior next year and have two more years of high school left I’m very sure I can get enough money to get a full ride. This app is a dream come true! I hope you can get more partners though as I would love to have as many choices as possible but understand that it would be difficult.

RaiseMe ❤️❤️❤️

I wish I could have utilized an app like this as a teenager. Because I researched last night, and this app came out in August of 2014, when I was JUST starting my last year of high school. I'm 27 now. And I downloaded this app a couple of nights ago. But quickly deleted the app because I thought I could not use it because 1) I had already done my high school career but did not stick with college very long. I dropped out after two years. 2) I have a disability. Which mainly discouraged me from ever thinking about college in the first place. And lastly, I want to work on my GED. And I've been thinking about all of this A LOT lately. Do you think I should email you guys later in the day and see what you can do for me? Maybe the staff at RaiseMe could come up with a new opinion! :)

Love this!!

Great app!! Thank you for making this a reality because paying for college will be a real struggle for me and my family financially but this program has really lifted some weight off of our shoulders! So far I have received almost $33,000 (around $8,000 per year) for the school that I will be attending. The app not only provides scholarship opportunities but includes extensive information on many schools, whether they participate or not. However I did have a few questions. Am I guaranteed to receive the money I have racked up? Is it just an estimate of how much money I will receive in financial aid or grants? Will this money be included on top of already existing financial aid and grants?

Great App

I love this app but I took a star off for one reason - unweighted GPA and restricted scholarships.My GPA is weighted so it’s frustrating that, for some colleges, I can’t see what type of scholarships they’d offer me because my “GPA isn’t high enough” when it is high enough. RaiseMe should show the scholarships for certain colleges even if your GPA “isn’t high enough” according to the app. Maybe put a clear note on the side that one’s GPA needs to be higher for all scholarships shown to apply - but at least still show the money students could be saving if they meet the minimum GPA. This, or maybe incorporate weighted GPA into the app/allow students to add their own GPA rather than it being determined by the app (that way they can also see scholarships that would/wouldn’t be offered if they have a certain GPA?)Other than that, I still think this app is pretty great. Just some constructive criticism above!

So much potentialll!!

I came across this app today and it’s absolutely great the interface is simple and it is great to keep track of what courses you are taking and how that reflects to college admissions. I came across an issue on my end, I have can’t add non core classes to my gpa. Is this because non core classes are not part of the unweighted GPA? However this is the best college resource I’ve come across! It rivals college board however doesn’t have the amount of specific filters like college board has. However, over time I see this app to improve and hopefully by the time I get to college there will be much much more colleges available. Add Hawai’i schools! Great App! 5 stars because I see much potential!!

It has potential

Right now, it’s ok. I think it’s a great app for getting an estimate on how much money you could receive. I also like how you can get money just for your grades and required community service. Although, it does need a lot of work. I followed about 20 colleges that I have an interest in and none of them appeared on the app. They really need to get a lot more colleges on here. I can understand not having Stanford or Harvard, but come on, it’s missing state schools. Also I wish there was an option to add a class in and not have it count towards your gpa. At my school there are college prep classes, honors classes, AP classes, and then ones that are unleveled(don’t count towards gpa). The options on the app are regular, honors, and AP. They really need to add an unleveled option. And finally, the app only shows your unweighted gpa, and not your weighted gpa. I would really like to see both on there, because it kept saying my gpa was too low to get a scholarship from northeastern, when my gpa was much higher than required. Overall I love the app but it needs some more work. :)

It’s Amazingly Helpful.... when it works.

When I saw this app, I was immediately excited. As a freshman in many honors classes, I knew I was able to get scholarships. Along with my extracurricular activities. My only problem is that I have a high GPA. I have gotten honor roll every quarter so far. However, when I enter my grades into this app, my GPA is a whole point lower than what it’s supposed to be. Right now, my GPA last quarter was 4.2, when it says that it’s at a 3.3. I am not liable to scholarships, according to this when I know I am because my official score it way higher. Yes this may be a problem that is easily fixed, and I understand that. I will still use this app because it is quite possibly this best thing I have done for college considering money. My family does not have experience with college and it’s important to me that I go so I live my dream. This is absolutely amazing and I am extremely happy with what I have. Thank you so much for this app!
