Fastweb is an American scholarship search website which matches students to relevant scholarships based on a profile of provided information.[1] As of 2023, it reportedly lists more than 1.5 million scholarship opportunities,[2] though it does not offer any unique funding which cannot be obtained elsewhere.[1]

History[edit]

Founded by Larry Organ in 27 April 1995,[3] Fastweb is an acronym for "financial aid search through the web".

In 2001, Fastweb was acquired by TMP Worldwide, owner of job advertising website Monster.com.[4]
