I just wanted to remind you that we will be drawing the big $10,000 scholarship winner on October 31, but will not be officially announcing who the lucky winner is until Monday, November 2.
The next $10,000 Scholarshippoints winner, along with the $1,000 and $500 scholarship winners for October will be drawn in just four days! Can you feel the excitement in the air? Is your heart pounding with anticipation? I can tell you that I haven’t been this pumped since my Mom brought home a [...]
Scholarshippoints hits the 500,000 member mark!
One of my favorite movie quotes of all time is, “If you build it, he will come” from the 1989 hit movie Field of Dreams. Now 20 years later I’m proud to say I am associated with scholarshippoints.com, a program which serves as its own field of dreams for many deserving students.
The scholarshippoints program was launched back in 2006. We awarded $250, $500, and $1,000 scholarships during our inaugural year, but my how things have changed.
As the site has grow so have the scholarship dollars. 2008 was a banner year for us as we gave away $25,000, but are now on pace to shatter that mark by giving away an incredible $100,000 in ‘09!
“We were pleased to offer $25,000 in scholarship awards in 2008,†said Joe Cronin, CEO of Edvisors and Scholarshippoints. “But given the current state of the economy and limited resources available to families today, we knew we could have a profound impact by raising the scholarship award pool and helping even more students in 2009.â€Â
Everyone at scholarshippoints would like to say THANK YOU to all our dedicated members, new and old, for making this a truly special site. We just love adding new scholarship opportunities for our valued members, and I trust you love winning them!
We built it. You came. And we couldn’t be happier.

Most people do not know everything about scholarships, but they are great because you do not have to pay them back, do not have to have financial need, and they are easy to find.
Hello my scholarship peeps!
If any of you are football fanatics you may want to check out one of the latest scholarship opportunities which was posted on studentscholarshipsearch.com over the weekend. This one is designed for those with knowledge centering around the Philadelphia Eagles NFL team. I so wish I was eligible for some of these scholarships.
The international scholarships online database is a free resource for students to find scholarships that are right for them. Please visit the website and search for awards.
Hello ScholarshipPoints gang!
This is the nutty Professor just wanting to remind you that a great resource to locate cool scholarships for school is over at studentscholarshipsearch.com. I’ve been personally loading new scholarship opportunities every day especially for you and will continue to do so for the rest of my days here on earth. So if you haven’t checked out that site be sure to do so.
Some of the new scholarships I loaded this week include one from Burger King, The Next Iron Chef, and even a scholarship for golf caddies. There is a scholarship for everyone!
We are just twenty-three days away from the big $10,000 drawing on Halloween! Who’s excited? Who’s pumped? Who wants to jump for joy? I can’t even win the mucho but I am still excited!!
We’re thinking about having the next 10K winner video a :30 second snip it saying how much they love us and what they plan to do with the money. The winners page is cool, with all the testimonials, but we still get people emailing us saying, “Are you guys for real? Is this a scam?” I’m not sure what else to do to prove we are not making this stuff up so I thought maybe a video from the winner?
Does anybody out there have a suggestion on how we can make people feel we are legit? Are we doing a good job now? When you come to the site do you think we seem shady or something? My mission is to get no more emails that say, are you guys for real? I need your help!!
