DegreeMentors was founded in 2023 by Norair Khalafyan and Arman Tarverdyan, two friends who grew up in Glendale’s Armenian community and knew firsthand how overwhelming the college process can be.
After navigating it themselves, they made a simple decision: turn what they learned into guidance for others. What started as helping fellow Armenian students quickly grew into something bigger.
Today, DegreeMentors serves students from all backgrounds, but the mission remains the same: making expert academic advice accessible, personal, and rooted in real experience.
Every student deserves a mentor who’s been where they are.
We’re building the go-to resource for students who want clear, honest guidance on their academic journey, from someone who actually gets it.

Marketing materials, website content, and general descriptions of DegreeMentors’ capabilities do not expand the scope of a specific Client’s purchased package. Package descriptions on the Platform are summaries; prices marked as “starting” prices, or as varying, are estimates that depend on the scope confirmed in the Order.
Unless expressly stated otherwise:
If a signed or expressly accepted Order contains a term that directly conflicts with these Terms, the more specific term in the Order controls solely with respect to that particular subject. All other provisions of these Terms remain in effect.
DEGREEMENTORS DOES NOT GUARANTEE ADMISSION TO ANY SCHOOL, UNIVERSITY, COLLEGE, PROGRAM, PROFESSIONAL SCHOOL, GRADUATE PROGRAM, SCHOLARSHIP, HONORS PROGRAM, OR OTHER INSTITUTION.

Admissions and financial-aid decisions depend on many factors outside DegreeMentors’ control, including institutional policies, application volume, applicant pools, admissions criteria, funding availability, academic records, testing policies, institutional priorities, deadlines, governmental rules, and decisions of third parties.
A Student may follow all advice provided by DegreeMentors and still receive an unfavorable result.
The purchase of Services is payment for consulting, mentorship, review, time, expertise, and the other Services described in the applicable Order. It is not payment for an acceptance, scholarship, financial-aid award, or other outcome.
DegreeMentors may publish historical information about student outcomes, including acceptance rates, numbers of students served, schools to which students have been admitted, scholarship amounts, testimonials, success stories, or similar information.
This information describes past experiences or historical data and is not a promise, warranty, prediction, or guarantee regarding any particular Student.
Admissions outcomes differ materially based on the individual applicant, school, program, admissions cycle, and other circumstances.
Any acceptance-rate or outcome statistic depends on the methodology, population, time period, available information, and definitions used to calculate it. Upon reasonable request, DegreeMentors will describe the general basis for any statistic it publishes.

DegreeMentors may authorize communications through email, telephone, text messaging, videoconferencing platforms, collaboration tools, or other approved communication systems.
Any separate personal, financial, employment, commercial, transportation, housing, social, or other relationship voluntarily formed between a User and an individual mentor outside the scope of the Services is not part of DegreeMentors’ Services, and DegreeMentors is not responsible for it, unless DegreeMentors expressly approves it in writing.

Users should report any conduct by a mentor or other service provider that they believe is unsafe or inappropriate to contact@degreementors.org.

Students are responsible for understanding each institution’s rules about outside assistance, editing, artificial intelligence, authorship, collaboration, and originality.
Before submission, the Student must independently review and approve every application and confirm that all statements are truthful and permitted.

DegreeMentors may explain forms, assist a User while the User completes an application, help organize information, or otherwise provide lawful support, but the User remains responsible for all information entered and all legally required signatures.
Clients should consult a qualified financial, tax, or legal professional about individualized financial, tax, or legal questions.

Users should provide materials well in advance of relevant deadlines. DegreeMentors is not obligated to accept rush work or accommodate last-minute requests.
Email support, telephone support, messaging support, year-round support, priority scheduling, “unlimited” check-ins, mentor access, and similar descriptions mean reasonable access during normal business operations. They do not guarantee continuous twenty-four-hour availability, immediate responses, unlimited time, or real-time access to any particular individual, and DegreeMentors may apply reasonable scheduling and frequency limits to prevent excessive use.
Reasonable delays may occur because of weekends, holidays, staffing, application-season demand, illness, travel, technical issues, or other operational circumstances.
Unless an applicable Order sets a different policy, Users should provide at least twenty-four hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a scheduled meeting.
DegreeMentors may treat a late cancellation or missed meeting as completed or forfeited if personnel reserved time specifically for that meeting.
Repeated missed appointments, unreasonable delays, or lack of participation may affect DegreeMentors’ ability to complete the Services.
If DegreeMentors must cancel a scheduled session, it will make reasonable efforts to reschedule. A missed meeting caused by DegreeMentors will not be treated as a completed session.
Sessions are not recorded unless all participants are notified in advance and give any consent required by law.
Prices are those shown on the Platform, in an Order, or otherwise communicated by DegreeMentors at the time of purchase. Prices shown on the Platform may be starting prices, and the final price is the price stated in your Order.
DegreeMentors may change its prices at any time for future purchases. A later price change does not alter the price of a completed purchase unless the applicable Order provides for recurring or variable charges.
By providing a payment method, the Client represents that they are authorized to use that payment method and authorizes DegreeMentors and its payment processors to charge the amounts due under the applicable Order.
Clients are responsible for applicable taxes, fees, or other governmental charges unless DegreeMentors states that they are included.
Third-party payment processors may have their own terms and privacy practices.
If DegreeMentors permits payment in installments, the installment schedule is a payment convenience and does not convert a package into separate month-to-month purchases unless the Order expressly states otherwise.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, agreeing to an installment plan is a commitment to pay the full package price.
Stopping participation, failing to schedule sessions, abandoning an application, deciding not to apply, changing schools, or no longer wanting the Services does not automatically cancel outstanding installment obligations.
DegreeMentors may charge scheduled installments to the authorized payment method in accordance with the Order.
If a payment fails, DegreeMentors may:
To the extent permitted by law, the Client is responsible for reasonable costs incurred in collecting valid unpaid amounts.
No Service automatically renews merely because these Terms exist.
A Service will automatically renew or continue billing only if the applicable checkout flow, Order, or other purchase process clearly and conspicuously tells the Client that the Service renews automatically or is a continuous service.
Where DegreeMentors offers an automatically renewing or continuous service, the purchase process will identify the material renewal terms, including the billing frequency and the amount or method of determining recurring charges, and DegreeMentors will obtain the affirmative consent required by applicable law, including California’s Automatic Renewal Law.
DegreeMentors will provide legally required acknowledgments, renewal reminders, price-change notices, and cancellation methods. Where applicable law requires online cancellation for an online purchase, DegreeMentors will provide an online cancellation method.
Cancelling a future automatic renewal does not retroactively cancel amounts already properly charged or eliminate obligations under a separately agreed fixed-term package.
If you have a concern about a charge, please contact contact@degreementors.org first so DegreeMentors can try to resolve it.
If a Client disputes or reverses a charge for Services that were purchased and made available, DegreeMentors may suspend Services, provide transaction records and communications to the payment processor, and seek to recover the disputed amount and any fees permitted by law.

These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES MOST DISPUTES TO BE RESOLVED BY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF IN COURT, AND IT WAIVES JURY TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS.
Informal resolution. Before starting arbitration, you and DegreeMentors agree to try to resolve any dispute informally. The party raising the dispute must send a written description of it, including the relief requested, to the other party (for DegreeMentors, to contact@degreementors.org). If the dispute is not resolved within thirty days, either party may begin arbitration.
Agreement to arbitrate. Except as provided below, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Platform, or the Services, including questions about the scope or enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate, will be resolved by final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California, or by video conference if the parties agree, and may be decided on written submissions for claims under ten thousand dollars. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this Section.
Costs. Payment of filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator may award any individual relief that a court could award.
Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, and either party may seek temporary injunctive relief in court to prevent misuse of intellectual property or confidential information.
Class action and jury waiver. You and DegreeMentors may bring claims against each other only in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims of more than one person. YOU AND DEGREEMENTORS WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
Public injunctive relief. Nothing in this Section waives any right to seek public injunctive relief to the extent such a waiver is prohibited by law. Any such claim will be severed, stayed until the individual arbitration is complete, and then decided by a court.
Opt-out. You may opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by emailing contact@degreementors.org within thirty days after you first accept these Terms, stating your name and that you wish to opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.
Severability. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable as to any claim, that claim will proceed in court and not in arbitration. If any other part of this Section is found unenforceable, the rest of this Section remains in effect.
Minors. Nothing in this Section limits any right a minor has under applicable law.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless DegreeMentors and its owners, employees, contractors, mentors, and agents from any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of: your breach of these Terms; information or materials you provide; any false, misleading, or unauthorized statement in an application; your violation of any law, institutional rule, or third-party right; or your misconduct.
DegreeMentors may suspend or terminate your access to the Platform or Services if you breach these Terms, fail to pay amounts due, engage in conduct described in Sections 11, 13, or 26, or if DegreeMentors reasonably believes continuing would expose it or others to legal, safety, or reputational risk.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including those concerning payment, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, dispute resolution, and indemnification.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs Section 30.
For any matter not subject to arbitration, you and DegreeMentors agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California.
DegreeMentors is not responsible for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, public-health emergencies, power or internet outages, third-party platform failures, government actions, labor disputes, or acts of war or terrorism.
DegreeMentors may update these Terms from time to time. The updated Terms will be posted on the Platform with a new “Last Updated” date. If a change is material, DegreeMentors will make reasonable efforts to notify active Clients, such as by email.
Changes apply to purchases and use of the Platform after they are posted. They do not apply to disputes that arose before the change, and they do not change the price or scope of a completed purchase. Continued use of the Platform or Services after an update means you accept the updated Terms.
Questions about these Terms, cancellation requests, arbitration opt-out notices, and other legal notices may be sent to:

Every student has a story worth telling. Admissions decisions are never guaranteed, but the application you submit is fully within your control. Our goal is to help you present it with clarity and confidence, and to apply to the schools that fit you best.
