It’s time for another CollegeXpress giveaway! We’re celebrating 25 years of CX with a special contest for counselors and students. Ready to compete and win some AWESOME prizes? Here’s how:
Contest details
- Get your students to register on CollegeXpress between February 19–March 19. (Not only is CX totally free, but students can also search for colleges and request information in one click, find millions of dollars in free money for school with our Scholarship Search tool, read helpful articles and advice from admission experts and real students, and more. Plus, they'll be automatically entered to win our annual $10,000 scholarship contest when they complete registration!)
- At the end of the one-month period, we’ll pick one random student from all our registrations. That lucky student will win a $25 Amazon gift card, and your counseling office will win a $75 Amazon gift card PLUS free counseling resources from CollegeXpress, including our Atlas & Planner, Hyper-Handbook download, and a copy of The College Finder by Dr. Steven Antonoff!
Easy ways to gain entries
We know you really want to win this contest, so we’ve come up with a few sneaky ways to get more students to register on CollegeXpress (and increase your chances of winning!):
- Retweet our social media posts and include a link to registration.
- Add a link to CollegeXpress in your email signature
- Include our College Search and Scholarship Search tools in your lesson plans
- If you’re registered on CX, refer your students using your unique link (which will also gain you entries into our monthly $500 Refer-a-Friend contest—double winning!) If you're not registered on CollegeXpress yet, you can access the special counselor registration form here and start referring your students.
Share with your students
We’ll contact the lucky student and school by email shortly after the contest deadline. Students should complete registration fully to be entered—it only takes a few minutes and is completely free, plus they'll gain access to the best college and scholarship search resources out there.
You have one month to rack up contest entries—starting NOW! Good luck!
