Budget estimate

$500,000 – $1,500,000

The solicitation does not disclose a budget ceiling. Comparable university consulting engagements for multi‑year scholarship optimization typically range from $500,000 to $1,500,000 depending on scope, staffing levels, and the complexity of analytical tools required. Assuming a three‑year contract with a small team of senior consultants, data‑analytics specialists, and project managers, an estimated contract value would likely fall within that band.
