User Reviews

Going Merry Scholarships app is praised for its user-friendly interface, variety of scholarships, ad-free experience, and convenience in managing applications. However, multiple users report significant bugs preventing successful application submissions, login and signup issues, incomplete or misleading scholarship links, and lack of features to track applied scholarships separately. There are also complaints about inaccurate due dates and an incomplete database of schools and cities, which negatively impact the user experience despite the app's potential and positive design.

Pros

Offers a wide variety of scholarships to browse and apply for
Allows users to favorite scholarships and apply directly through the app
No ads, making the experience less distracting

Cons

Frequent errors and bugs preventing scholarship applications or saving information
Issues with signing up and logging in, including problems with Google sign-in and inputting required info such as city, state, or school name
Scholarship links sometimes redirect to external sites requiring additional profiles or do not allow completion of applications
Lack of features to track which scholarships users have already applied for separately from favorites or ignored lists
Some inaccurate scholarship due dates and missing schools or cities in the database

The app is easy to use but no matter how many scholarships me or my classmates apply for we all get denied. All of our GPA's do vary so that isn't the issue. Very unfortunate. Definitely think it's a scam

After setting up my parent account, I keep getting error messages. I'm told to try again later for every action I try to do. I can't get details on scholarships or update my profile information. Update: it's working now. Lots of schorships. Still navigating through them.
