There's a CATCH!

🚨

Just kidding. There really isn't one.

We know how the internet works. Something says "free" and you immediately look for the fine print, the upsell, or the part where they ask for your credit card. We get it. We're the same way.

We're Shelley and Ed — parents of a high school senior. We built CollegeHound because we needed it ourselves. So here's the fine print:

  • Cancel anytime. No contracts, no commitments.
  • No "gotcha." It's the full version — and new features get added as we build them.
  • We will not sell your email or your data. Period. That's gross.
  • You can delete your account anytime. No guilt trip. No exit survey.

Here is why we charge for Scout instead of making it free and selling ads or taking referral fees from colleges: because the moment we take money from a school, Scout stops working for your family.

No college pays us to be recommended. No ad network sees your data. Scout works for you because you pay for it. That is the whole model.
