Who we are
Open Scholars is a registered company (Open Scholars Ltd) that helps students find verified scholarships and prepare and submit applications on time. We do not give out scholarships, and we never promise that one will be awarded.
Registration and contact details are on our Who we are page. You are welcome to call or visit our office.
