CollegeResourceNetwork.com Launches New Scholarship Search Engine with Monstrous Number of Minority Scholarships
CollegeResourceNetwork.com Launches New Scholarship Search Engine with Monstrous Number of Minority Scholarships
Montreal, Quebec (PRWEB) September 21, 2011
CollegeResourceNetwork.com, a free scholarship search engine and college planning website, officially launched today with the goal of having the largest number of minority scholarships on the internet.
Carla Abraham co-founder/owner said “With the difficult economy and the ever-growing cost of college, our research demonstrated the need to help minority and underrepresented students gain access to reliable college funding sources; especially in higher education.”
CollegeResourceNetwork’s mission is to provide students with quality financial aid and college planning resources. First by making sure minorities can access financial aid for college but also by providing useful new ways to search for college degrees. “Many other sectors of the economy have made it easy for consumers to search for products corresponding to their needs and CollegeResourceNetwork (link: http://www.collegeresourcenetwork.com) is well-placed to achieve the same goal for prospective college students.”
Among the first main types of information launched today minority scholarships (link: http://www.collegeresourcenetwork.com/scholarships/) are the main focus. We have included scholarships for Hispanic/Latino, African-American, Asian, GLBT, Native-American, Single-Mothers, Disabled, Women and Veteran students. We continually search for new scholarships to add to our database and you can expect to see the numbers grow regularly.
Other useful information are college rankings (link: http://www.collegeresourcenetwork.com/college-rankings/) and a new upcoming way to search for college degrees. ” We are committed to continually improving our site and being the premier resource for minority scholarships and college planning information.”
Founded in 2010, College Resource Network is the premier resource for minority scholarships and college planning information. College Resource Network is a privately owned company and is based in Montreal, Quebec. For more information on College Resource Network, please call (313) 829-7911 or visit http://www.collegeresourcenetwork.com

World’s First Minority Graduate Scholarship and School Resource Directory Can Make You Smarter Than Your Neighbors
World’s First Minority Graduate Scholarship and School Resource Directory Can Make You Smarter Than Your Neighbors
Chester, PA (PRWEB) July 9, 2006
It is not a secret that the number of minority students attending graduate school is low. One of the main reasons for this under-representation is that minority students are not made aware of the many educational and financial aid opportunities available to them. GradPortal.org, a minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory, looks to change all that.
Powered by GradSchools.com, the leading online provider of graduate school information, GradPortal.org is a free directory of graduate school programs geared directly toward minority students. The minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory also offers information on financial aid as well as advice on preparing for and surviving graduate school.
“There are hundreds of thousands of students out there who could add so much to this society but are never given the chance,” says Mark Shay, president and CEO of GradSchools.com. “Our hope is that this new minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory will reveal opportunities that these students never realized were open to them, and will help them attend the school of their dreams and further their education.”
The site is still growing, and plans are in place to add additional reference articles and firsthand journal entries of those who are attending or have completed grad school, as well as a powerful mentoring program where current and future grad students can learn from each other. If you feel you could contribute something to the minority graduate scholarship and school resource directory, contact Stefanie Altman at 610-499-9200 or via e-mail at stefanie@gradschools.com.
GradSchools.com
GradSchools.com is the Internet’s leading source of graduate school information. It helps students find their ideal graduate school through a comprehensive directory of colleges and programs organized by subject, school and location. Gradschools.com is a service of Educational Directories Unlimited (EDU), a leading Internet company serving higher education. Based in suburban Philadelphia, EDU’s steady growth since its inception in 1989 has led to its inclusion in the Philadelphia 100, Inc. Magazine/ICIC Inner City 100 and Inc. 500 lists of fast growing businesses.

Cappex.com Supports Determined Students with New Hardship College Scholarship
Highland Park, IL (PRWEB) August 23, 2007
High school students who achieved success in spite of great difficulty may now apply for The Cappex Hardship College Scholarship.
The $ 2,000 award focuses not on GPA or test scores, but on a student’s determination to overcome life’s hurdles.
“Most scholarships are only focused on the end result of a student’s high school career, but the Hardship Scholarship looks at the journey,” said Mike Moyer, president of Cappex.com, LLC. “We’re looking for someone who turned adversity into opportunity.”
Moyer encourages students to talk to colleges about hard times they faced. “Colleges love students that overcome adversity,” he said.
To qualify, students need only share their story by filling out the Cappex profile. Students with a 2.0 GPA or better can qualify and apply until Jan. 31, 2008.
Students may also apply for any of the other 26 college scholarships offered by Cappex. In addition to being eligible for the scholarships, Cappex students will also hear about colleges seeking students just like them.
The Cappex profile is free and simple. It includes information on academics, accomplishments in areas like sports and music, what students want to study in college, and what kind of school they might like to attend. Cappex students are matched with interested colleges based on their needs and wants.
“Cappex turns the tables on the college search process. We put students in control, and make sure they capitalize on their college opportunities,” Moyer said.
About Cappex.com, LLC
Cappex.com is a free service that helps connect students with colleges and universities. Students can visit the Web site and see which colleges want them before they apply. For the latest information from Cappex, visit http://www.cappex.com/blog.
