Marcia
logged on to this website one day and discovered
the College Bound Program. She paid the application
fee, applied to our College Bound Program, and named
her son as the beneficiary of a possible $2000 Chimorel
Scholarship.
Her son
did not receive the scholarship (only one of 25
applicants will), but the additional services received
paid the entire cost of her son’s $60,000
education. Here’s what could happen:
First:
We helped the son determine a specific career choice.
Then we helped him get a job to pay $5000/yr of
the cost. Second: The job paid $3000/yr of his tuition
and fees. Third: We helped him apply for approximately
200 scholarships, grants and loans. The loans amounted
to $5500/yr. The son received three scholarships
worth about $2500/yr. Fourth: Through Chimorel’s
Guaranteed Scholarship Program, Marcia and her son
received an additional $4000 each year for four
years.
The tuition
was $60,000 for four years. A total of $80,000 was
developed to pay all his college expenses. $38,000
came from scholarships and tuition payments by his
work. Marcia helped with some books and the initial
fees. The remainder of the son’s college expenses
were covered by loans and her son’s work.
The work
experience helped the son find summer intern experiences
at higher pay in his career area. On graduation
the son started at a higher level because of the
infield experience, which made repaying the loans
easier.
