My motivation for this project was the lack of organization when it came to scholarships. Many websites had databases but required the user to signup or login for full capabilites. I found this really tedious and decided to create my own database using webscrapping and REST api.

Users will have access to a scholarship database, they will be able to view the deadlines, award amount, and an overview. They will have search filters and tools to help them narrow down their results. Once a user finds a scholarship they are interested in, they can be redirected to the sponsor's website

• axios
• cheerio
  This allowed me to webscrape the website: www.collegeofdistinction.com
  I then pushed this data to MongoDB. Which made it easier to store data for POST and GET calls.
  
  
  

• more search filters
• better UI
• let users create an account for a 'favorites list' of scholarships
