Without Houseroom

Buried in a fees page, if it's mentioned at all

Scholarship detail is scattered across school sites, often a single vague line — 'awards available'. So affordability feels like a closed door, and families who could have applied quietly rule schools out before they ask.

Not another feature list — the specific things only Houseroom does, and why they matter for the decision in front of you.

01

Awards across every school, in one place

Academic, music, sport, art and means-tested awards collected together — instead of opening forty fees pages one by one.

All award types

02

Honest about what an award means

We surface the published detail, so you can tell a meaningful fee reduction from a token honorary title.

FAQ

Questions parents ask.

Where does the scholarship and bursary data come from?

From each school's own published admissions and fees information, with the source and review date shown on the record. It's gathered into one place and kept on the same weekly review cadence as the rest of Houseroom's data, so what you see reflects what the school currently publishes.

What types of award are covered?

Academic, music, sport, art and drama scholarships, plus means-tested bursaries, wherever schools publish them. Bringing them together lets you find schools that reward your child's particular strength, or that offer the income-based support your family needs.

Can I tell how much an award is actually worth?

We surface the published detail a school provides, so you can distinguish a token honorary award from one that meaningfully reduces fees. Where a school only states that awards exist without detail, we show what's published rather than estimate a value.

Do schools pay to feature their awards?

No. Schools cannot pay for placement or to highlight their awards — the information reflects what they publish, sourced and dated. Houseroom is independent and takes no paid placements anywhere, scholarships included.

Is it free to search scholarships and bursaries?

Yes. Searching awards and bursaries is free for parents, with no account needed to browse. It sits alongside the free fees and cost tools so you can plan affordability in one place.

Still deciding?

The honest answers.

Is this free, or do I pay to see the awards?

It's free. Searching scholarships and bursaries is part of the open data on Houseroom — no card, no account needed to browse — and schools can't pay to feature. We don't charge parents to understand what's affordable.

Can I trust that the award information is current and real?

Every award record shows its source and review date and is refreshed weekly, drawn from the school's own published pages. Where a school states an award exists without detail, we show exactly that rather than inflate it — so you can see how firm each figure is.
