Financial aid.

Eckerd College automatically considers international applicants for an International Student Grant of up to $11,000, and up to $2,000 in work-earned monies based on the documents and test scores you submit with your admission application. We will also invite eligible, admitted students to apply for up to $5,000 in additional monies through our International Scholars Award.

You may also submit the International Student Certification of Finances available through College Board as a part of your admission file. However, this is not a requirement. You must submit the Statement of Financial Responsibility & I-20 Verification Form and supporting Bank Statement in order to be considered for admission to the College. Please be sure to read these documents fully before submitting your application. All international students must show ability to finance the estimated total cost of study at the time of application. Although Eckerd requires these documents prior to admission, a student's financial need will not impact the International Student Grant.

An international student may be eligible for International Student Loans if they have a cosigner who is a US citizen or permanent resident (green card).
