CROWDFUNDED ED

Scholarship Program

OPENING ACCESS

Applying for undergraduate and post-graduate admissions alone costs applicants hundreds of dollars, catching many by surprise. Adding campus visits and test prep costs could push these expenses in excess of a thousand dollars. Limited funds substantially limit opportunities.

To assist with these expenses, Knowpen has developed the Open Access Crowdfunded Scholarship Program. The OACS Program will fund applications and campus visits. Half of the fund will be crowdfunded on our website. Knowpen pledges to match any donations, funding the other half. We hope to grant our scholars a sense of freedom and confidence that will help them make the most informed college and graduate school choices possible.
