Private Colleges

The Say Yes Tuition Scholarship is provided to eligible students from families with incomes of less than $75,000/year unless otherwise noted. Students from families with incomes more than $75,000 who choose to attend one of the nonprofit private colleges will receive standard financial aid award directly from the college and, if needed, an additional Say Yes Choice Grant of up to $5000 per year directly from Say Yes to Education.

Please note: Private Partner colleges are the primary source of funding to Say Yes students attending their institutions.  While all of the colleges have agreed to the basic conditions of the Say Yes program, colleges may have unique policies and restrictions.  The determination of the actual award that a student receives will be made by the college at their discretion based on college policies.
