Undergraduate Scholarship
$ 100,000 2500 opportunities
More than 52 percent of undergraduates receive financial aid from Yale each year, with awards based entirely on demonstrated need. With an average annual grant of $31,700 per student, Yale College scholarships in 2008–2009 totaled $90.5 million—a commitment that will grow in the current academic year. Since 1966, Yale has made good on its promise that qualified students can enroll here regardless of their financial circumstances, and in 2001, the University extended its need-blind admissions policy to outstanding young people from around the world. Invested in perpetuity within the Endowment, named scholarships provide vital support to these students and their families.
