Financial Aid

We realize that financing a college education is a significant investment for most families, especially in today's tough economy. We also know that it is one of the most important investments that you'll ever make. Our Financial Aid Office is committed to working with students and their families to work out a plan so that students can afford a first-rate education here at Elms College.

We see financial assistance as a partnership between you, the government, the college, and the private sector, or any combination of these reliable sources. This past fall we offered 98 percent of our students financial assistance, and the average financial aid package for full-time first-year students was $16,655.

Thanks to our broad array of financial aid programs, including scholarships, grants, and loans, we are confident that we can help you achieve almost anything you can imagine.
