Sponsor a $250 Boost — Change a Conway Student’s Life

A single $250 pledge can unlock up to $400,000 in college aid for a hardworking Conway student. Your pledge is collected only after the student finishes every piece of paperwork for a major scholarship application. Help them cross the finish line; we’ll handle coaching and verification.

Why Sponsor

  • 1–2 hours of confusing online forms stand between many students and scholarships worth $60,000 – $400,000.
  • Families juggling jobs, siblings, and tech hurdles often stall out.
  • A modest cash incentive plus ConwayUP guidance raises completion rates dramatically.
  • Your pledge is due only when the student’s paperwork is 100% verified.

How It Works

  1. You pledge $250 per student (or any multiple). No money up front.
  2. ConwayUP tracks each student’s progress through FAFSA, state-aid, and program-specific forms.
  3. When everything is officially “✅ Complete,” we invoice you and transfer the award to the student.
  4. If the student stops short, you owe nothing; the pledge simply expires.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can a $250 pledge unlock up to $400,000?

Many elite “last-dollar” scholarships—like the QuestBridge National College Match—cover full tuition, housing, and fees at top universities. One ConwayUP co-founder, Joshua Mendoza, is a QuestBridge College Prep Scholar applying this fall; we aim to find several more each year. When students finish the paperwork, six-figure offers follow.

When do I pay?

Only after ConwayUP verifies the student has completed every required application step. We’ll email an invoice with payment options.

Can I sponsor more than one student?

Absolutely. Choose any pledge amount in $250 increments or contact us for a custom agreement.

What happens if the student never finishes?

No payment is due; your pledge simply expires for that cycle.

How are students matched to sponsors?

First-come, first-served. We pair each pledge with a student who meets income guidelines and commits to a target scholarship program.
