Mitchell Community College Open House

In-State Angels Helping Students Earn In-State Tuition at Over 80 Universities

We at In-State Angels help out-of-state college students earn in-state tuition at over 80 universities across the country.  Since 17% of high school students end up going to an out-of-state college, there's a good chance you know a few and I believe you and your students have a right to know about this possibility.  It may very well be the difference between a student being able to attend their dream college or not; if we can help even one student you know, then we want to.

We are a small company headquartered in Boulder, CO made up of former college students (rated A- with Better Business Bureau)---and we're trying hard to make a difference in the variety of education practically available to students.  We believe every student should have the freedom to go to the university of their choice, in the state of their choice, without being dissuaded by an out-of-state tuition price tag.  

Over the past 3 years, we at In-State Angels have had a 100% success rate in helping our clients earn in-state tuition.  Due to our success and positive feedback from students and high school counselors, we have recently expanded to over 80 universities across America with many more universities to be added soon.
 
If you know any students who have gotten into or will be going to any of the colleges below as an out-of-state student, please share our information.  Please feel free to forward this email.  Our website is https://www.instateangels.com.  The the best way for a student to find out whether we can help them, given their individual situation, is to fill out the form on our website on the Get Started page.
