Scholarship via Raise.Me
University Scholarship via Raise.Me App
STEPIO Education Team would like to introduce a new program called raise.me, a team partners with 225+ colleges and universities in US to offer student scholarships starting in the 9th grade.
With this user-friendly app, your student can automatically earn scholarships from colleges and universities each time he or she achieves any of the following goals in school :
- Get an A in a course (US$100 - $1,000)
- Get a B in a course (US$50 - $600)
- Participate in a school club or sport (US$25 - $250)
- And much more
Our STEPIO Edu Team is among the first in Hong Kong to take advantage of this opportunity, by strategically partnering with Raise.Me, which is funded in part by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and U.S. colleges.
Here is how you can best support your student to get the most from this opportunity :
- Ensure that your student creates an account at www.raise.me;
- Congratulate your student for regularly adding good grades, community service, extracurricular activities, and other achievements to his or her raise.me “Portfolio” in order to earn “Micro-Scholarships” from colleges;
- Your student is eligible to receive scholarship money for each achievement from the start of 9th grade until midway through 12th grade.
We hope using raise.me will make your student’s path to college and university both more fun and affordable.
If you have questions, I encourage you to contact edu.stepio@gmail.com or send an email to support@raise.me.
Increasing numbers of public and private colleges and universities continue to join the raise.me program. Colleges and universities are added on a monthly basis and you can request colleges/universities at any time. Your student will automatically get related Micro-Scholarships from all new colleges as they become available.
Hope this message brings you a better plan for your student's future!
