Financial Aid
St. John’s is committed
to making its distinc-
tive educational
program available to
students from families
of all income levels.
This year, St. John’s
College will begin an
expanded program of
need-based aid and
merit scholarships. All
students admitted to
the freshman class for
fall 2013 may qualify
for renewable grants
and/or scholarships,
regardless of their
family income—and
admissions are
need-blind, meaning
students are consid-
ered for admission
independently of their
need for financial aid.
Aid packages are
tailored to each
student’s family
situation. Through a
combination of direct
grants and scholar-
ships, reasonable
loans, and work-study,
the St. John’s College
financial aid program
aims to ensure that any
qualified student can
afford to attend.
