Apply for a scholarship

Your application is private.

Your application stays inside guidEase. It's not shared, not visible to other users, not visible to sponsors, and not stored anywhere connected to your journal data inside the app.

You don't need diagnosis paperwork. You don't need to prove anything. Self-identification is enough. The point of this program is removing barriers, not creating new ones.

If you're selected, you're not named publicly. Only the Guide appears on the Guides page, and only if they chose to be acknowledged. You stay private.

Your application stays in our pool for up to 12 months. Near the end of that window, we'll email you to ask if you'd like to renew for another year. If you'd rather we let it go, do nothing and we'll quietly remove it. You can withdraw and ask us to delete your application at any time.

What's a Guide?

A Guide funds scholarship access for autistic, ADHD, or AuDHD people who would benefit. The name echoes guidEase.

Every scholarship slot is funded by a Guide, including the one you're applying for.

If a Guide opted in to public recognition, their name appears at guidease.app/guides. You stay private either way.

How it works.

Apply once and you're in the pool. We hold drawings when donor funding makes slots available, and we'll email you if you're selected.

Drawings happen periodically as funding allows. Sometimes weeks, sometimes longer between rounds. Selection is random among applicants. No first-come-first-served, no need-based judgments.
