Helping to make private college education more affordable.
Since 1995, SAGE Scholars has bridged the gap between students who want a quality private college education and colleges that will work closely with member families to ensure affordability — all at no cost to the student, family, or college.
As the nation’s oldest and largest private college preparation and funding organization, Tuition Rewards® provides families a guaranteed tuition reduction of up to 25%. In the last year, Tuition Rewards has guaranteed families savings of over $98M in tuition.
Saving for college is one of the biggest challenges families face today. The SAGE Scholars Tuition Rewards program reduces financial stress and provides a simple and effective way for your family to send a child or loved one to college.
Once enrolled, sponsors and students earn SAGE Scholars Tuition Rewards Points to help offset the financial burdens of a four-year undergraduate degree at a SAGE Scholars member colleges and universities.

Featured College

At Saint Michael's College, students are welcomed by a community that feels like family and a campus that feels like home; every faith background, culture, and identity are embraced. From day one, students begin the journey to discover and pursue their purpose so they can achieve successful careers and fulfilling lives. We call this Purposeful Learning – an engaging four-year experience that begins in the student’s first year with programming that aids in the transition from high school to college. Students are assigned a faculty academic advisor, a career coach, and a success advisor and they’re given the tools to create lifelong habits of healthy living and to create positive global change through service and social impact.
Not only are St. Mike’s students engaged with one another, with their classes, their faculty, with clubs, and with issues they care deeply about, they are also encouraged to pursue their passions and uncover new ones. Students live on campus all four years which means campus is vibrant, engaged, and always buzzing with activities, clubs, and events, seven days a week.
St. Mike's is located just outside of Burlington, Vermont, a quintessential beautiful college town located between Lake Champlain, the Green Mountains, and less than two hours from Montreal, Quebec in Canada. With the College's location in Vermont's largest city, opportunity is well within reach – from outdoor adventure, to working on restoring ecosystems, to a wide variety of internships and job opportunities. A liberal arts college, students are intellectually stimulated and inspired by a variety of disciplines, in addition to their major, providing flexibility so that students are better prepared not only for their first job, but for an employment marketplace that is constantly evolving.
