The Superb New College Scholarship Search Tool from TUN
Not all search tools are alike when trying to find scholarships and the new one from TUN, The University Network, is definitely one to check out and utilize!
What scholarship search tools and websites can truly help students find legitimate awards?
My post today is a guest post from the fine people at TUN – The University Network. TUN has a wonderful new search tool that is easy to use and results in REAL scholarship information. Thank you, TUN!
Supply and Demand
Students are constantly searching the web for scholarships, but so many of the websites dedicated to scholarships are “clickbait” ad space, full of outdated or incorrect scholarship information.
So how should students know which scholarships are legitimate or which ones they actually qualify for (i.e. which ones they should spend time applying for)?
The University Network’s NEW Scholarship Search Tool makes it easy for students to filter and find scholarships that are right for them.
Scholarship Search Tool
The University Network, whose goal is to help students save, realized that making the scholarship search process easier for students is an excellent way to help them save both time and money (because time = money).

TUN’s Scholarship Search Tool gives students the option to search for scholarships by grade levels (now even high schoolers can search for scholarships), majors, deadlines, state residency requirements, ethnicity, and more.
Further, every scholarship has its own page that gives students the basic information about the scholarship and the link to the scholarship provider’s website, so that they can easily apply for it.
In November, TUN added 4,348 new scholarships and articles about various types of scholarships and 340 compendium scholarship articles that help students find scholarships intended for a specific group of people.
For example, we have a compendium article on scholarships for transfer students and one on scholarships for women.

Artificial Intelligence
TUN has also integrated artificial intelligence into the scholarship search page with the use of IBM Watson in our chat box. Students can now ask questions, and our chatbot will help them through their scholarship search. At this point, the artificial intelligence is more “artificial” than “intelligent,” however it will become better as more people use it. When it gets more advanced, we will make it more prominent and use it elsewhere on the site.

Haha, love “more artificial than intelligent.” The growing pains of new technologies.
It’s hard to keep up with new technology, isn’t it? Thanks for visiting, Jess!
This seems a pretty good search tool – looking for those worthwhile scholarships has just got easier
I agree. Thanks, Linda!
Honestly, you really come up with the best stuff. Great tool for parents and kids.
Thank you so much, Carol! I really appreciate your taking the time to comment and visit my site. 🙂
Anything to make the piles of reading material easier to digest, right?
Exactly! Thanks for reading and commenting, Trudy!
What a terrific tool! This reminds me of something I use to help patients search for assistance with prescription medications. I used to have to go into each drug company and then a genius put together a website that has all the patient assistance programs on one site. So convenient.
Thanks, Molly! I hope tons of students take advantage of the TUN site. There are so many great ways to find scholarships!
Anything that makes this process easier and more streamlined is brilliant in my opinion 🙂
Thank you so much, Tony!
