Hampshire College

Students admitted as Baldwin Scholars do not use financial aid as the program covers all costs.

However, some Baldwin applicants are not admissible to the Baldwin Program, but are admissible to the regular program, in which case they should apply for aid.

For this reason, Hampshire College encourages all Baldwin applicants to apply for financial aid, even if they won't need it.

To be eligible for aid, you must apply for financial aid at the same time that you apply for admission and provide all of the application materials by the deadline to be considered for an award.

Hampshire's financial aid program is designed to supplement the family’s contribution toward the costs of a Hampshire education.

Aid awards are packaged to include

• a work-study opportunity
• a student loan
• grant assistance

Financial aid awards are renewable each year you are enrolled as long as you continue to demonstrate need and are making satisfactory progress.

You have to reapply for aid each year; if your family’s financial situation remains the same, you can expect a similar award annually. Each year we will also reevaluate the amount you are asked to contribute from your income and through loans and on-campus employment. This self-help portion of your award will increase each year.
