Financial Aid

Holy Cross employs a need-blind admissions policy, meaning no student will be denied admission due to a lack of financial resources. To create a truly diverse community of students from various backgrounds and experiences, the College strives to meet the documented financial needs of every admitted student.
The goal of financial aid is to bridge the gap between the cost of education and what students can afford to pay. More than half of Holy Cross students receive some form of need-based financial assistance. Several options are available to aid you in the financing of your college education (only U.S. citizens and permanent residents are eligible for financial aid). Academic-achievement and athletic scholarships are also offered on a limited basis.
