How It Works: FAQs

Does ScholarLink apply on my behalf, or is it an assistant tool?

ScholarLink is an assistant, not an agent that applies for you. It helps you find matching professors and positions, builds a tailored SOP and keeps your applications organized, while you stay in control of every message you send.

Our Research-Match Engine reads the text of a professor's recent papers to identify their key research themes, then looks for the points where those themes overlap with your CV and research interests.

Yes. Every draft is fully editable, and you are responsible for reviewing it before you send it.

Signing up is free. Students register and add their education goals to receive custom suggestions. Professors paste their academic link, or claim an existing profile with their academic email. [Confirm which tools need a paid plan]
