Subject: Update: Your Student's College Acceptances?


Everyday More Colleges Are Sending Out Decisions...

It's Time to Share & Compare Your Student's Offers to Other Students at the Same Schools


Since 2019, the Paying For College101 community of parents has been sharing their students' offers to enhance transparency in college pricing for all families.

This year, it's especially crucial to observe how colleges are making admissions decisions and awarding financial aid/merit scholarships given the changes to FAFSA.


Sharing college offers (anonymously) helps bring transparency to how colleges are making admissions decisions and awarding financial aid/merit scholarships.

It also helps you decide whether or not to appeal.

 

Our COMPARE COLLEGE OFFERS TOOL (CCO) has been LIVE for the 2024 - 2025 school year since December and we have over 8000 offers shared so far!

 

Families can share their students' admissions acceptances/offers and see real data from this year and past years. Help us make our goal to crowdsource 15,000 offers this year!

 

Give a Little, Get a Lot

Deciding where to go to college is one of the biggest financial decisions your student will make. Work together with other families and use CCO to:

  • share your student's college offers

  • see real offers in real time submitted by other students

  • get a sense of how fair your student's college offers are

  • decide whether to appeal 

If your student has received any acceptances, share them NOW! (information shared is all anonymous).

 

If your student has not received any acceptances yet, come back to CCO (we'll also send reminders), and share offer details when they arrive. 

"By crowdsourcing this information, I'm excited to see the members of this community come together to make the college process and pricing more transparent for current families of seniors and all the families behind them." —Debbie
