Hobart and William Smith do not offer financial aid waivers. We offer merit based scholarships as well as need-based grants to international students.

The average package typically equals more than half the annual cost of tuition, room and board. Highly competitive applicants will be considered for a full tuition scholarship.

Financial aid is available for a maximum of eight semesters for those who enroll as first-year students. For those entering with advanced standing (transfers), aid is available for the time allotted to complete a degree.

Awards are based on demonstrated financial need and, if it becomes apparent that such need no longer exists, may be reduced.

Financial aid funds are disbursed only after students receive their F-1 visa status.
