A change to our deposit deadline
The Department of Education has informed us that colleges can expect to receive student information from the FAFSA no earlier than March 2024. Given this delay, Hampshire College has decided to extend our deposit deadline to June 1, 2024, for both Early Action and Regular Decision applicants. We understand that sticking to the traditional May 1 deadline would add unnecessary pressure on families as they navigate financial aid decisions for fall 2024 enrollment.

Whether you choose to enroll at Hampshire or at another college, we ask for your response to our offer of admission.

Hampshire is in the Connecticut River Valley, one of the most magical places a college could be. Here's a small sampling of the many activities Hampshire students have at their fingertips just beyond campus.
