Going Merry

Without a simple and transparent process, financial aid applications add another barrier to education rather than removing one. This is the problem we're focused on solving at Going Merry in our op-ed for the @NewYorkTimesUSA

#TeamNavient was honored to host Congressman @BurgessOwens during his visit with our @MeetEarnest and @GoingMerryInc teams in Salt Lake City. It was a pleasure discussing how we connect students to scholarships and support their success.

We agree @HeidiRoizen :) We remember receiving Jacob's application with ideas on how to simplify financial aid and being like 'woah - we have to get this person'... And he's lived up to it every day with his work to help students across the US.

We're excited to be supporting Wisconsin students with @WIS_DFI! Check out lookforwardwi.gov for awesome resources for students, parents and educators.

@SendGrid @twilio - we are a pro client, which supposedly means we get ticket, chat & phone support. There's no phone # or chat on the site & nobody has responded to our ticket raised a month ago. Bugs happen but the lack of support is explicitly against what you promise.

Congratulations to the 20 @FootLockerfoot Scholarship recipients, who each received $20k - here's a video of them being told by @CollinSexton02 youtube.com/watch?v=zQ980Y…

@AOC @AOC we are working to fund college scholarships for the next generation of scientists, engineers, and thinkers fighting climate change #merryplanet #actonclimate #fridaysforfuture #nextgen #GreenNewDeal Any chance you could help us spread the word? app.goingmerry.com/scholarships/g…

This is what sea level rise looks like. Those who argue that a #GreenNewDeal is too ambitious don’t see that glacial melt isn’t waiting - in fact, it’s happening at a much faster rate than predicted. We don’t have time to argue. We need to act - on a massive scale. 🌎

@nytimes @nytimes thanks for sharing this important study. At Going Merry we've created a climate change scholarship to help educate the next generation of scientists, thinkers, and engineers to help solve these deep problems. Help us spread the word! app.goingmerry.com/scholarships/g…

Breaking News: Climate change is threatening the world's food supply, the United Nations warned, and the window to address that threat is closing rapidly. nyti.ms/2yIkgy5

Fun to do our first podcast with @all_career !

Honored to have worked with @brianspaly to have created this scholarship for Ann Arbor Public Schools students. Well done to Gabby DeMott from @A2Pioneer!

We’re excited to be working with you @CTHS_Counseling and helping your students with scholarships!

@melissakorn Hey Melissa, we surveyed 700 of our students and found 70%+ were not applying to certain colleges because of cost concerns. Colleges need to do way more to show they are open to ALL students

Harvard admissions officer Roger Banks referred at trial yesterday to affordability as "the silent killer in college recruitment" because families self-select out of applying over cost concerns.

Seniors: check out this scholarship application platform at goingmerry.com @SeafordHSPride @GoingMerryInc

Are you bored on this “snow” day? Today would be a great day to apply for some scholarships! goingmerry.com @GoingMerryInc

@DisabledSportUS Want to make sure your members are aware of the Robert Spotswood Memorial Scholarship for student athletes overcoming disabilities: goingmerry.com/scholarships/r…

Congratulations Kristi on the marathon and all the incredible work you've done in memory of your brother. We're honored to have worked with @26forcaleb : Donations are still open here: goingmerry.com/scholarships/c…

The surveys are rife with bias, and colleges are facing more pressure to change them. And maybe even eliminate them entirely. chroni.cl/2AUfIWC

@Maine_East_Mark is right! We encourage everyone to make a big push on scholarships in the next three months. We have thousands at goingmerry.com for students from all backgrounds!
