College Compass by Everest Education offers strategic solutions to help aspiring high school students (grades 8-12) and gap year students get into the best universities and colleges in the world. Our students have been accepted to the most prestigious schools, including Princeton, Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Cornell, Duke, Williams, Amherst, USC and more with remarkable financial aid. As part of our social impact initiatives, we want to help the most talented Vietnamese high school students who are with financial disadvantages and limited resources to get into top #30 national universities and top #15 liberal art colleges. We want to do so by providing three (3) full ride scholarships: two (2) need-based scholarships and one (1) merit-based scholarship to our College Compass Admissions coaching program for those who meet our qualifications and eligibility.
Each scholarship award provides the student with a College Compass Admissions Plus ($11,000) package that includes:
