There should be no limits for motivated students with big dreams.
Yet, nationwide:
3% of students at the most selective colleges come from low-income families.
75% of students at these institutions come from upper-income families.
With access to the same resources and support their peers enjoy, low-income students are just as successful.
Our Program
Why We Do It
Getting into college is a full-time job even for prep schoolers who have resources and connections. Imagine the challenge for students at overcrowded high schools with over-burdened college counselors, who are the first in their families to go to college.
Without help, it’s nearly impossible to grasp:
- The variety of prestigious schools
- The opportunities for financial aid
- The complexities of the application process
That's where we come in.
How We Do It
Each student is assigned a dedicated college counselor to guide them through the process from application to graduation.
Each student receives up to 100 hours of intensive SAT prep from 10 outstanding SAT instructors.
For every dollar we raise, College Match generates a return on investment of 2,000% in total financial assistance for our students.
College Match could not exist without the generous and enthusiastic support of so many dedicated donors and volunteers.
If you would like to make a contribution to College Match, THANK YOU! No amount is too small, and all contributions are cherished.
