Financial aid is available from many different sources – the federal government; state departments and agencies; private organizations such as the Rotary, churches, employers and from the college itself. Wilson College students received more than $16 million in financial aid from all sources. For many types of aid, the student must first complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). We encourage all students to apply for aid from many sources. Wilson College does not reduce Wilson College grants or scholarships if a student receives a scholarship from a private organization. Information can be found in your high school guidance office, through online searches, in newspaper articles, from employers as well from the Wilson College Financial Aid Office.
