Scholarship Saturday: Dartmouth College Scholarships

Scholarships At Dartmouth College

By: Amber Heard

Attending an ivy league doesn’t have to result in a huge hole in your wallet. In order to receive

as much aid as possible—especially from top-tier universities such as Dartmouth—it is crucial to

complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA); College Scholarship Service

(CSS) Profile; and Institutional Documentation Service (IDOC) in a timely manner. It is also

important to be diligent about your search for outside scholarships as they can have a significant

impact on financing your education. A majority of the scholarships offered from Dartmouth and

other ivy leagues are need-based and amounts range from $1,000- $50,000 depending on your

eligibility.

Here are some additional scholarships offered at Dartmouth:

Dartmouth Endowed Scholarships: Some Dartmouth students will be selected to receive one

or more of 750 endowed scholarship funds. No separate application is required. Students who

receive this scholarship write their donors a thank-you note annually and even have the

opportunity to network with them.

Army ROTC Scholarships: Scholarships may be either full-tuition or room and board in

addition to monthly stipends for military expenses depending on your rank:

1st year, $300 per month

2nd year, $350 per month

3rd year, $450 per month

4th year, $500 per month

In addition to these scholarships, there are grants that student can apply for in order to finance

their education which can be found here: http://admissions.dartmouth.edu/financial-aid/apply-
