Hola Mariano... I hope I understand what your purpose is in this sentence.

 

In regards to colleges, I think it'd be very helpful if you could provide me with some information about  each college's terms and exams.  Could you also inquire about scholarships?

 

The reason "if you can get me some" should be replaced with "provide" is that "get" sounds kind of blunt especially when it's a request.  "Provide" is a more polite way of saying it.  The part that I was unclear about was "how each college manages about terms and exams" - if you would explain to me what you're looking for maybe I could suggest a way to say it.  With "and you can also ask them about scholarships!" - again, I think it's more polite to present it as a request if that's your intention.

Hope that helps!
