Making scholarships clear for every student
GrabScholarships is a free platform that helps students find scholarships they qualify for, understand every detail before they apply, and get help when they need it.
Finding a scholarship is harder than it should be
Details are scattered and often unclear. Deadlines move. Requirements hide in long documents.
Too many students start an application, only to find out halfway through that there is a fee to pay or a document they have never heard of.
GrabScholarships exists to fix that.
A search that should have been easier
Our founder, Arafat, grew up in Ghana with one goal: to study abroad. He searched for opportunities in several countries before earning a place at Albukhary International University in Malaysia.
He began with business and soon loved it. Studying abroad gave him far more than a degree: friendships, travel, confidence, communication skills, and a deeper sense of tolerance and acceptance. It showed him how big the world is, and how much a person can build from the ground up.
But he never forgot how hard the search was. Information was unclear, and more than once he started an application only to learn halfway through that it had a fee. He kept asking what would have helped him then. GrabScholarships is the answer.
