Terms of Use

What this service does

CollegeCompass360 is a free, independent service that helps adults going back to school explore programs and ways to pay for them. We are not a school, and we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of the U.S. Department of Education or any other government agency. We do not award grants, scholarships, or financial aid of any kind, and we cannot tell you whether you qualify. Grant amounts shown are the published federal maximums for the 2026–27 award year; most students receive less, and whether you qualify is determined by your FAFSA results and the school you attend. Applying for federal aid is free at studentaid.gov. Not all programs are eligible for all types of aid. This is an offer for educational opportunities, not an offer of, or a guarantee of, employment. Program outcomes vary by institution. We may be paid by education partners if you submit your details on their sites through links we send you, which is how the service stays free to you.

We email you about the request you send. We do not pass it to schools, and the businesses that may contact you are named on our partners page. Any school or education site you choose to contact decides independently what programmes to offer and whether to admit you.

Free study tools

The site also has free study tools: practice quizzes, calculators and study sheets. Your result is free and needs no sign-up. If you enter your email address to unlock a tool’s bonus, we email you as the consent line under the button describes. That is not a request for school information, and we do not pass your address to schools.

The tools are written in our own words from public sources and are for practice only. They are not exam content from any school or testing company, not academic, medical or professional advice, and they may contain mistakes. Check anything important with your school, instructor or program.

Who may use it

You must be at least 18 years old and in the United States to send a request or to sign up for our emails, including by unlocking a study tool’s bonus. You agree to give accurate information, and to submit only your own information and an email address you control.

Your consent to be emailed

When you check the consent box on the form, or click a button that the consent line under it names (such as “Unlock the bonus”), you agree to receive email as that text describes: from us and, where it says so, from NoGigiddy.com, which is under common ownership with us. Consent is not a condition of any purchase or enrolment. You can withdraw it at any time: use the unsubscribe link in any email, or email us. See the Privacy Policy.

No guarantees

We do not guarantee admission to any programme, the availability or amount of any grant, scholarship or other aid, or any employment or income outcome. Aid decisions are made by Federal Student Aid, state agencies and the school you attend, based on your FAFSA and their own policies. Information on this site is general and may change; federal maximums are shown as published by Federal Student Aid, and most students receive less. We also do not guarantee that a study tool is complete, current or free of errors, or any grade, test score or admission result from using one.

Third parties

Schools, education providers and advertisers are independent of us. We are not responsible for their programmes, their statements, their pricing or their privacy practices. Links to other sites, including studentaid.gov, are provided for convenience and are not an endorsement.

Acceptable use

• Do not submit false, stolen or third-party information.
• Do not use automated means to submit requests or sign-ups, scrape the site, or probe its security.
• Do not interfere with the site’s operation or attempt to access data that is not yours.
• Do not use the site for any unlawful purpose.

We may refuse service, remove a request, or block access if we believe these Terms are being broken.

Intellectual property

The text, design and code of this site belong to CollegeCompass360 or its licensors. You may use the site for your own personal, non-commercial purpose. You may not copy, republish or resell any part of it without permission.

Disclaimer of warranties

The site is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any information on it is complete or current.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CollegeCompass360 is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data or goodwill, arising from your use of the site or from any contact by a school or partner. Our total liability for any claim relating to the site will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100). Some states do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify CollegeCompass360 against claims and costs arising from information you submit that is not yours or not accurate, or from your breach of these Terms.

Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You and CollegeCompass360 agree that any dispute will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia, and you consent to their jurisdiction. Nothing here prevents either of us from seeking relief in a small-claims court.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. The date at the top shows when they last changed, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated version.

General

If any part of these Terms is held unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them to a successor in connection with a merger or sale of the business. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between us about the site.
