7 Funny Valentine's Day Cards for College Students

Whether you love or hate this Hallmark holiday, one thing's for sure: Valentine's isn't really designed for college students. That is, until now!

Happy Valentine’s Day! Whether you love or hate this Hallmark holiday, one thing’s for sure: It’s not really designed for college students. Roses are expensive, greeting cards are sappy, and boxes of chocolate aren’t included in your meal plan. Isn’t it about time someone catered to the broke, jaded, scholarly 18–20-somethings of the world? Well, it’s your lucky day! We’ve come up with some sentiments that any college student can relate to. Print them up, hand them out, and soon everyone on campus will know what is really close to your heart. (Written by Claire Carter; artwork by Matt Bradshaw of Gerbil With A Jetpack)

CollegeXpress helped me overcome a huge hurdle. Because of the small town I live in, I felt like I would never achieve more. I felt like I could never go beyond because of costs. I feared I wouldn’t be able to find scholarships. I had no idea of where to start. With CollegeXpress, I easily found scholarships—they came to me. It was a helper, and I was instantly matched with opportunities to go above and beyond educationally.

CollegeXpress helped me find the school I am currently attending by consistently sending me emails of other schools. This allowed me to do research on other schools as well as the one I am in now!

CollegeXpress helped open me up to many colleges that fit my interests. I’m only a sophomore in high school, so I like having a lot to look at, and CX does a great job of picking colleges that meet my wants. It's a great website that I'll continue to use until it comes time for me to apply for colleges. I also like that it notifies me through email with options to look at. Thanks CX!

My mother signed me up for a couple of scholarship contests through CollegeXpress. I was also able to do some research and compare the different schools on my list. I was able to see the graduation rates and different programs that helped me decide on Adelphi University. I will continue looking for some scholarships for my start in September.

CollegeXpress has helped me in many ways. For one, online searches are more organized and refined by filtering scholarships through by my personal and academic interests. Due to this, it has made searching for colleges and scholarships significantly less stressful. As a student, life can already get stressful pretty quickly. For me, it’s been helpful to utilize CollegeXpress since it keeps all of my searches and likes together, so I don’t have to branch out on multiple websites just to explore scholarship options.
