Basics

Academic Record

Your numbers. Honest is better than optimistic — gap analysis works off real data.

Background & Eligibility

Many scholarships exist specifically for students with your background. Skip anything you don't want to share.

Extracurriculars & Leadership

List clubs, sports, jobs, research, leadership roles, internships. One per line.

Awards & Honors

Academic honors, competition wins, scholarships already received, publications, patents.

Goals

Find My Path

Talk it out with The Dutch Mentor AI Coach. We'll narrow down what you might want to study, then propose 10 schools — private, state, and trade — that fit who you are. When you lock in your path, we use it to find scholarships that actually match.

Tell your story

Hold the mic and just talk — your background, what you love, what bugs you, what you're curious about, who you want to be. Or type if you prefer. The more you share, the better the match.

Scholarship Match

We rank scholarships and fellowships against your profile. Eligible / Borderline / Not-Yet-Eligible verdicts plus a one-line reason for each.

🎯

No matches yet

Save your profile, then click "Run Match Analysis" above.

Gap Plan

For every scholarship you're "Borderline" or "Not-Yet-Eligible" for: what's missing, how hard it is to fix, and the deadline to fix it by. Prioritized for impact × effort.

CV Review

Paste your CV. Get structured feedback in 4 modes — structure, ATS-readiness, content, and final polish. Built for students AND adult professionals applying for Masters / PhD / fellowships.

Cover Letter Coach

Brainstorm angles. Get line-edits on a draft. Polish before submission. The AI gives line-by-line feedback that an admissions reader would — without writing the letter for you.

Essay Writer

A guided Q&A that turns your real answers into a draft in your own words. We never invent details. We only weave what you actually wrote into structure. Academic integrity built in.

Step 1 · Pick your prompt

Use a Common App / Coalition prompt below, or paste your own scholarship essay prompt.

The Dutch Mentor AI Coach

Stuck? Ask anything — eligibility questions, deadline strategy, "is this scholarship legit," "how should I phrase this." Crisis-aware: certain topics route to support resources, not chat.

Hi. I'm your AimScholar mentor. Ask me anything about scholarships, applications, essays, or your gap plan. Built on 30 years of mentorship — now AI-powered.

Saved

Bookmarked scholarships and your active gap plan. Stays on your device.

Nothing saved yet

Bookmark scholarships from the Match tab to see them here.

Privacy & Trust

Everything you enter stays on your device by default. We never see your data unless you explicitly run an AI analysis — and even then, only the prompt content goes to the model.

Your data, your control

Remember conversations
Mentor chat sees the last 6 messages for context. Off = fresh start every message.
Crisis-aware mode
Detects distress signals in chat. Always on for mentor responses.

What gets sent to the AI

When you click Run Match, Build Gap Plan, Review CV, or Get Feedback, we send the relevant fields of your profile + that section's content to Anthropic's Claude API via our secure proxy. We don't store the request. Conversations in the Mentor tab include the last 6 messages if memory is on.
