DONOR INFORMATION

Every year, College Quo will select two high achieving, low-income students and waive their college consulting fees of USD $1400. But we need your help to do more for these amazing students.

​Donations, no matter how small, will be used to:

1) Pay students' application fees (Approximately USD $60 per school)
2) Pay for financial aid application fees (At US universities, it costs USD $16 per school to apply for financial aid)
3) Aid in other educational expenses (laptop, books, & supplies)

Donations should be made via PayPal to paypal.me/collegequo. When sending via PayPal, you can choose to add a note to specify what the donation should be used for.

We also believe in full transparency. If you contact us via email (collegequo@gmail.com), we will let you know exactly what the donation was used for and allow you to contact students to ensure that the donation was used for the right purpose. 

You may also choose to sponsor a student and pay their consulting fees at a discounted price. This will allow us to provide college consulting to more than two high achieving, low-income students. Contact collegequo@gmail.com if you are interested in sponsoring a student. We will forward the application information for students who applied for our fellowship program who we feel are extremely compelling applicants, and you will be able to select a student to sponsor.
