Need a Scholarship? Apply for the Chegg Textbook Scholarship
If you’re a college student it’s safe to say you need money. Believe me, I understand. Students usually live on Ramen and infrequently do their laundry to save every quarter. One of the reasons the must cut back is the outrageous cost of normal college textbooks. The average college student spends about $900 every year on textbooks. Instead of footing the bill again next year, apply for the Chegg Textbook Scholarship and receive $500 in textbook rentals from Chegg, the place to rent college textbooks.
The winner of the Chegg Textbook Scholarship will receive $500 in textbook rentals from Chegg, and with the savings we offer that’s more than a year of free textbooks! Four runner ups will receive $50 each.
But what do I need to apply you ask? You need to write an essay of course; it is an real scholarship after all. The question you must explore in your essay is “What can one student do to help the environment?” The answers need to be submitted by June 20th and must be five-hundred words or less.
Check out the official page with the rules, eligibility and technical stuff at Chegg.com.

thanks for the info mate. I’m gathering scholarships info as well on http://www.acakadut.com/category/scholarships/
While Chegg may seem awesome, they have horrible customer service, extremely ridiculous shipping times, and their books are in bad condition.
Good luck trying to get in touch with them by phone or email if you ever have any problems. And good luck in getting your books within 2 weeks of your order being placed.
Stay away from Chegg until they improve their customer service and shipping.
While Chegg.com has a wonderful concept, rent a book and they plant a tree…Chegg’s CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS! I have been trying to get a hold of them for 3 WEEKS now. I am still missing one book (out of the 10 that I ordered).
I have sent several e-mails and called them (what feels like) a million times. Every time I call, their answering machine says they are experiencing “a high call volume” and to call back later or send an e-mail. It then HANGS UP on me. So I call several different times in the day and it’s the same story. I don’t think there is anyone on the other end - EVER!
With regards to the e-mails that I have sent, I have gotten 2. It seems like they are idiots because they keep asking me for the same information (that was in the e-mail that I sent to them).
I am discouraging students (et all) to not RENT from Chegg. Find alternatives…they are out there. Also, I am going to do the following:
1. Post all over the web as much as I can to let people know my experience.
2. Request a credit for that specific book from my credit card.
3. Report them to the better business bureau.
4. I am going to un-recommend them to all my friends.
I am tired of being hung up on and not being called back or given a solution to my e-mails.
THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!
While on my posting frenzy, I came across this – VERY INTERESTING – Chegg could be all a lie!

I had the same problem as you.
Call (408) 855-8991 if you want to talk to a real person at Chegg and get your problem solved.
I WILL NEVER USE CHEGG AGAIN. THEY DO NOT HAVE A PERSON YOU CAN SPEAK WITH…EVER! THEY DO NOT ANSWER THEIR EMAILS! THEY SEND OUT THE WRONG BOOKS! THEY WILL NOT CORRECT THEIR MISTAKES! I HAVE NOTIFIED THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU AND ASK MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO ISSUE ME A CREDIT!
