Give me schools that feel like [insert dream college name] but typically cost no more than $[your budget for tuition and fees].
I want to start in Fall 2025 and I don’t have an affordable option right now.
I know community college is one path, but I’d like to see what 4-year options are still available.
Here’s what I’m working with:
Colleges I Like: [insert schools you like]
I Was Accepted At (optional): [schools I got into but can’t afford or won’t attend]
My Intended Major (optional): [insert major or interest]
What I Liked About Those Colleges (optional): [small classes, city campus, strong pre-med, etc.]
My Priorities: [ex: “still accepting apps,” “prefer diverse campuses,” “support for first-gen students,” etc.]
My GPA (optional): [insert GPA—weighted or unweighted]
Other Info That Might Help (optional): [test scores, region, special circumstances, etc.]

Please include:
Schools still accepting applications for Fall 2025
Tuition and fees within my stated budget

What feels similar about each school based on what I liked
Bonus: links to apply, test-optional info, whether institutional scholarships or financial aid are still available, and anything else that makes the process easier
If included: Black student support, campus climate, and visibility
Mode: Match me to smart options—not just anything that’s open.
Also: If I already received a financial aid offer that isn’t enough, remind me I can file a financial aid appeal.

But don’t let me rely on the appeal alone—help me find new schools to apply to that might offer better support from the start.
