Types of 金融援助

There are two types of aid available: need-based and merit-based. Each student’s financial situation is different, which means that individual financial aid situations will be different.

Need-based aid for U.S. 学生

对你.S. citizens and permanent residents, financial aid pack年龄s typically contain a combination of three types of need-based assistance: grants, 贷款和勤工俭学.

奖助金

给予援助 does not need to be repaid and may be funded by Mount Holyoke, the federal government, state governments or private organizations.

贷款

Most financial aid pack年龄s include federal, state or Mount Holyoke College student loans. Here is additional information on need-based loans, including terms and conditions for borrowing.

勤工助学

勤工助学 provides aid to 学生 for both on- and off-campus (community service) jobs. Students who work in College work-study positions while enrolled are paid hourly for their work and can use their earnings to cover books and miscellaneous expenses.

Need-based aid for international 学生

A typical financial aid pack年龄 for international 学生 consists of need-based grant aid, a fixed-interest student loan and campus employment.

Loan and work amounts are established in your initial financial aid award. Loan amounts generally increase by $1,000 per year.

给予援助

给予援助 does not have to be repaid. 基于U.S. 税收法规, the amount of total grant aid that exceeds the cost of tuition and fees may be subject to tax withholding. For more information on taxability of scholarship, visit the Internal Revenue Service website or consult a tax professional.
