Students Who Graduated from the College of Their Choice but Saved Thousands on Tuition
"I took advantage of CollegePlus! because it provided a flexible, viable alternative that was non-binding. My time and costs at Cedarville University have been reduced by a full year because CollegePlus! helped me earn college credits during high school and apply them to my degree. CollegePlus! provided me the opportunity to maximize my time and energy in high school. I'm thrilled at the opportunities opening up as a result!" — Zach S., Illinois, BA Communications
"I can definitely say that God has used CollegePlus! to help work out His plans for me. The CollegePlus! staff were most helpful in answering my myriad of questions about the program. When I first learned about the CollegePlus! program, I had taken 45 hours of general education classes at a local college. This, and the fact that I decided to major in a science-based degree, meant most of the credit–by–testing options which benefit many students were not options for me. What proved most valuable was the direction and assistance the CollegePlus! staff gave in searching out a college that would allow me to obtain my degree in a nontraditional manner, developing a degree template based on that college’s program, and identifying where I could take the needed courses within a certain time frame. Without CollegePlus! I would not be at the point where I am today in pursuing my degree." — Rana J., Missouri, BSHS Nutrition
"A quick note of appreciation for all that you at CollegePlus! have done. There is so much more clarity of purpose to Rana's schooling now, as compared to a year ago, and we just feel like your staff there at CollegePlus! have had so much to do with that process. If she had gone into the dietetics degree on her own without input, we feel like she would definitely be at least a year behind where she is now." —Lila J., Missouri
