Financial Aid

We are committed to making a Merrimack education affordable.

Merrimack College is committed to assisting students in achieving their educational goals.  That’s why we offer an array of academic scholarships, federal and state grants, loans, and work programs to deserving students. 

In fact, 90% of our students receive some form of financial assistance.  During the 2010-2011 academic year alone, 1,500 students will receive more than $21 million in institutional grants and scholarships.  Another $21 million-plus in aid comes from federal, state and private programs such as non-repayable grants, low or no-interest loans and a variety of work options. 

Additionally, alumni and friends continue to give generously toward endowed and restricted scholarships which help underwrite the student aid programs.
