User Reviews

Users praise Encourage as a free, comprehensive college-planning tool that helps locate scholarships, explore fitting colleges, and manage applications. It reduces stress, builds confidence, and supports students from freshman year to senior year (and their families). The strongest positives are its free access, scholarship resources, and clear, task-focused planning. Recurring downsides center on onboarding and login issues (zip-code errors, stuck screens, data loss) and occasional performance problems like slow loads. Overall, it’s a highly regarded free resource when it works, with room for stability improvements.

Pros

Free to use with no mandatory in-app purchases.
Helps users find scholarships and identify colleges that fit their goals.
Supports early college planning and reduces stress for students and families.
Boosts confidence and provides clarity about future education.
Useful across different stages (freshman to senior) and works as a comprehensive planning resource.

Cons

Onboarding/login/account setup problems, including invalid zip codes, blocked account creation, and password/data loss when typing.
Intermittent stability issues such as blank screens on launch or slow loading when navigating.

This is is truly wonderful! As a teenager in high school there is a build up of stress about many things having to do with college; how are you going to afford it, what is the best college for you, how do you prepare for your dream school, how should I narrow it down, and where am I going to find scholarships? This app truly helps with all of these things!! I have been able to find scholarships I never would have thought to look for or believe was possible. And I have truly been able to look into colleges that are a fit for me and match what I want out of school. We all want to get as much as possible out of college and this app truly helps do that. Try it and the best part is ITS FREE!!!!(I haven’t eeen any in app purchases not to say there are not but I truly believe this is genuinely an app that has your best interest)

As a senior, it’s been quite nerve wracking figuring out what life is going to bring. Encourage has helped to make this transition so much easier on not only me but also my family. I’ve been recommended hundreds of colleges and universities showing me that I have many options and much potential! Whether you’re a senior like me or you just want an early start or even a chance at a degree and other opportunities later in life, this app is 100% for you!!! God bless!! 🙏💕
