Undergraduate Financial Aid

Wheelock College is committed to making a private education affordable for everyone. Last year, more than 91% of Wheelock undergraduate students received financial assistance. Below are directions for applying for financial aid at Wheelock. Please visit our tuition page for information on the cost of attending Wheelock.

Wheelock College considers academic performance when awarding Institutional merit scholarships and need-based grants.  Please refer to our Scholarships and Grants page for more specific information.  Students are automatically evaluated for Institutional merit scholarships at the time of their admission. 

In addition we offer Federal loans and a number of Alternative loan options to assist families in paying for educational expenses.

Although we hope that families can make decisions about where a student will attend based on academic programs and other educational considerations, we understand that many want to compare awards from different institutions.  Because schools vary greatly in cost of attendance and components of aid awards (grant, loan, work), you should make comparisons carefully.
