We hated seeing incorrect or out-of-date scholarships when we were applying, so we double-check all of the scholarships on our platform! If you see any correct information or are concerned about a particular scholarship, just let us know and we'll look into it for you.

To report incorrect information to us, email us at support@goingmerry.com or click on 'Report Incorrect Info' on a scholarship listing page to be redirected to a short form. Be assured that our team will act to resolve the issue as soon as we can.


If your financial aid offer wasn't enough to cover your bill, we recommend you submit an appeal. Learn more about financial aid appeals here.

If you'll need a student loan to cover the rest, begin by researching the lender that will give you the best rate. Most private lenders allow you to answer a few questions risk-free and then get your estimated interest rate. You’re under no obligation to actually get the loan. We recommend checking with Earnest first. Get your rate estimate from Earnest here.
