There are times where the app will crash when imputing grades. I’ve attempted to update my profile both through the app and website and the changes won’t save. Then adding grades on the app makes things difficult. When I am adding grades you cannot scroll to read the list of items you have to fill out. And when you’ve added things you have to do it three times or more for it to save. There is just many bugs overall that need to be addressed and fixed. ### 3/5 — Adjustments *2024-04-16, version 1.30.7* This app is amazing but the only thing that needs to change is the inclusion of other grading systems. Most of the schools in my state grade based on proficiencies which are not a grade option. And the conversions don’t translate exactly. And then also a grading system of 1-4 with quarters for each number as that is also how many people are graded. ### 4/5 — Very helpful *2023-10-28, version 1.30.7* Wish they had a total amount of the scholarships earned other than that great app ### 3/5 — okay, but wouldn’t let me enter my information correctly *2023-10-24, version 1.30.7* I am an early graduate (having completed high school in three years instead of four) and the app would not let me enter this information. I tried to edit my attending years of my school and I wasn’t able to. Other than that, this is a good app and can be helpful when looking for application help/scholarships. ### 3/5 — Master degree?? *2023-07-09, version 1.30.7* Do you only offer assistance with scholarships for bachelor degrees? Do you have any assistance for masters programs? ### 2/5 — Good Resource, But Wish Accuracy in Availability *2023-05-09, version 1.30.7* I really love the premise of this app and what it can bring to students who need financial aid! However, it’s really frustrating to see my school, Arizona State University, shown in the pictures listed for the app page, however when I’m trying to register I keep being met with that my school isn’t available. No matter which campus I choose. This is really frustrating and, I don’t know, feels like false advertisement somehow. I was really excited to be able to use this to help me with my own degree ### 4/5 — very helpful *2023-05-08, version 1.30.7* i find this very helpful, yet, since i'm in a technical high school my cosmetology class is 3 credits, it won't let me choose three credits for it ### 3/5 — Good app but it seems like the servers are always down *2023-01-25, version 1.30.7* Title, would be 4 stars but it seems like the servers are always down and I can’t log in 90% of the time ### 2/5 — Colleges *2022-11-15, version 1.30.7* I tried to go through the choosing college option and the college that I am enrolled to is not listed as an option. I want to be able to use this app but when I can’t fill everything out it gets harder. If your college is very big and out there then you can use it but if it’s a trade school then it’s a hit or miss what has it and this one does not. I would love to use it if I could ### 3/5 — Great but some issues *2022-10-10, version 1.30.7* I love this I joined on the website but then downloaded the app. And well I’ve had so any issues with it. It doesn’t update my earnings on the app. And over all it just glitches a lot. I do love the website though. It works way better however I wish I had the convenience of the app. ### 2/5 — I can’t access since I’m an international student *2022-09-02, version 1.30.7* I was excited to start using this app but infortunatly it asks you for your address which must be inside the US , the feild is required and since I don’t live in America I have no access to it 🙂💔 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Non-inclusive *2025-08-11, version 2.2.3* Im a non traditional student and there is no option for that. You either have to be in highschool or college to sign up for this. ### 1/5 — Wrong Infi *2025-05-12, version 2.2.3* My school was not considered a 4 year even though it is one ### 1/5 — Your College Has To Be A Part Of This Or It’s Useless *2024-03-07, version 1.30.7* I saw this app & thought it would be great only to download it & fill out some information to have it tell me they’ll send my request to my college because their scholarships are not offered there. Sadly disappointed. ### 1/5 — Scam of an app *2024-02-13, version 1.30.7* Not sure where all the good reviews come from, but I haven’t received a cent from them. I had over $1700 in earnings, applied and was submitted by the deadline just for them to tell me that I did not have any earnings and the deadline had passed. Like what are you talking about, I literally have my earnings on the screen in front of my eyes. And now I guess I’m never seeing any of this money again? Maybe there was some kind of a promo to receive money for 5-star reviews, but they do not deserve it. I really counted on this money to help me out during my first college semester before I can get other scholarships, and they just screwed me over. Also, poor customer service. Just a terrible and overall disappointing experience. ### 1/5 — No. *2023-04-23, version 1.30.7* i don’t like the app. 1. im a middle school student, and there is no option for middle school. 2. im moving so i don’t know for sure what my high school would be? 3. it’s very laggy, and unreliable 4. asks for way too much information and i feel like my privacy is going to be violated. (asks for address, street name, high school, name, age, too much.) no no no. fix this app. i hate it. fix this app. ### 1/5 — Don’t know if it works cause my school isn’t available *2023-02-06, version 1.30.7* I go to a CSU school, in no way is this a small or relatively unknown university, so the fact that they don’t have it in their system isn’t a great sign for any other schools people may need scholarships for. ### 1/5 — What about the others? *2022-12-19, version 1.30.7* I can’t even make an account because none of the options (3: HS student, college student, parent) apply to me. I’m a non conventional student, married, just starting my undergrad and my university isn’t even an option. I don’t know how ### 1/5 — Only lists the larger state colleges *2022-11-04, version 1.30.7* My college was not on there so I could not do anything with the app. ### 1/5 — Seems cool *2022-10-29, version 1.30.7* I wasn’t able to make an account due to my city and school not even being on the list. But from what I’ve seen so far it looks promising. I understand, since I’m an international student so I do recommend to those who’s school might be available. ### 1/5 — There’s no HBCU colleges *2022-03-19, version 1.30.7* I downloaded this app to help with my school expenses and it doesn’t have any Hbcu’s which is the category of my school…… ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Raise Me *2024-08-21, version 1.30.7* Alexa Saint Louis Wednesday, August 21st, 2024 Raise Me is great. ### 5/5 — Definitely a must have! *2023-11-25, version 1.30.7* Great app. Great interface. It's very helpful in regards to preparing yourself for college, scholarships, and overall basic info which you would need to know about the colleges, what you're looking for, etc. I'm currently a junior in high school and right now I am trying to prepare myself for the future for college. The app is amazing and I recommend it to everyone. A couple things though: 1. The whole GPA score thing. I saw previous reviews mentioning that the GPA score is not the exact same score as the one they have and same issue here. I assume that eventually this would be fixed or looked at, so I'm just reiterating it. 2. For some reason, certain colleges (like FIU) don't appear to show its data. For example, whenever I click on FIU, it always says "Unable to show data." I made sure that I was following the school, and I am. I unfollowed and followed a couple times, checked for any app updates, and closed and opened the app several times, but to no avail does it show the data. I'm wondering if this is only happening to me so I came here for help. Other than that, the app is really goodand gets you ahead of the game for your future! :) ### 5/5 — MUST-NEED App *2023-10-15, version 1.30.7* This app is so amazing and has earned me so much money in scholarships for different schools, that I could basically go where I wanted to go. However many of the schools that I’ve been accepted to don’t accept the app’s micro scholarships (I wanna go to college in-state) therefore I’ve collected most of the money for nothing, but regardless, i love it! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2023-07-02, version 1.30.7* super easy and functional to work with ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2023-03-22, version 1.30.7* I love this so much!!! Keeps me in track of schooling as a freshman!!!! ### 5/5 — Amazingggg *2022-10-22, version 1.30.7* Amazingggg ### 5/5 — 5 Stars *2022-10-07, version 1.30.7* It’s really good, but when I try to input the college fairs and college visits I’ve been to for certain universities, they don’t pop up. Other than that. Amazing app! ### 5/5 — Would Recommend *2022-09-11, version 1.30.7* W app ### 5/5 — Not too sure *2022-09-09, version 1.30.7* Not too sure on how it works but it is my first day and it’s been fun setting up. Having a problem setting up my previous jobs from previous years. Offers no scholarship in my state CA but does give some details and an inside look in schools overall. ### 5/5 — Great App! One problem *2022-08-13, version 1.30.7* One problem I am facing right now is that the app isn’t allowing me to add a college to my college readiness area. I was putting down that I went on a college visit but it doesn’t allow any college name which is a required field. This seems to just be some strange bug that needs fixing. Other then that, it’s an easy app to use and really great! It is making me feel more confident financially for college as an upcoming senior in high school! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
