The Weekly Shortlist

The Weekly Shortlist from Worth Applying is a personalized research and discovery service for students in the United States pursuing opportunities at college and beyond, as well as for parents who want to support them. It covers scholarships, internships, study-abroad programs, graduate fellowships, academic placements, and other opportunities. Instead of presenting a large database of search results, Worth Applying researches and curates a weekly email with up to three options tailored to each student’s criteria.

Each pick includes a direct link, notes explaining why it may fit, and practical details such as deadlines or criteria it does not meet. Students and parents can use the same short sign-up form, and students can reply with feedback or updated information to help refine future selections. The service is designed to make finding opportunities more manageable, without pressure to apply to every pick.

The first Weekly Shortlist is free; continued delivery is available for a monthly fee, with cancellation available when the service is no longer needed
