Affordability

At Clarkson University, we work with you to ensure there are no barriers between you and your future.

We pride ourselves on making college affordable through financial aid, scholarships and other funding programs.

98% of our students receive financial aid and our 3,100 current students have received over $100 million in aid from Clarkson.

  • Need-based grants are available through both the federal government and Clarkson University and involve review of your FAFSA.
  • At Clarkson, we believe in acknowledging exceptional effort. That’s why we provide a number of merit-based awards and unique funding options.
  • Our Ignite Presidential Fellows scholarship covers all tuition costs for 10 first-time students entering Clarkson for four years (eight semesters) of undergraduate study.
