If a female fits the description, then she can begin the egg donation process. However, egg donation is a serious commitment - something many college-aged females may not be quite ready for.  First, there are a series of interviews and medical tests to match the donor
with a recipient. After a match is made, the egg donation cycle can be initiated. The cycle takes approximately one month. Within that month, the donor will have to inject herself with hormonal medications in addition to frequent visits to the fertility clinic to monitor the cycle's progress. Once the eggs are ready for ovulation, egg retrieval can be performed. Although the cycle prep and duration may be long, the process only requires one day of rest following the egg retrieval. Also, there are no physically harmful side effects of egg donation. In general, a female can continue on with her normal daily activities during the egg donation cycle, making this a prime method of making money for many college students. |

Fertility clinics offer the average female college student anywhere from $4,000 to $10,000 for an egg donation. Most clinics allow as many as four donation cycles, implying that a female could potentially earn anywhere from $16,000 to $40,000 from egg donations.
However, there is a slight catch. A female can't just decide to become egg donor . First, she must meet the qualifications for egg donation.
Although they differ slightly from one fertility clinic to another, in general female college students already meet the primary requirement of being between the ages of 18 and 34. In addition, she must:
