An Investment You Can Afford

“We believe that throughout our daughter’s career, an MHC degree will carry weight. Employers will know what kind of qualities she brings. And the alumnae network will give her contacts to reach out to. To us, that’s an investment worth making.” —Parents of a graduating senior

Even in difficult economic cycles, Mount Holyoke is an investment you can afford. Very few institutions meet the full demonstrated need of all students, but Mount Holyoke remains committed to meeting the full need of all admitted students who demonstrate eligibility. Currently, close to 70% of students receive some form of financial aid.

Mount Holyoke College meets 100% of institutionally determined need. In a recent survey from the National Association for College Admission Counseling, only 18% of private colleges and universities and 32% of public universities said they met full need.

Our overall stability and the ongoing generous support from alumnae to our endowment mean we can continue to offer students top-notch intellectual and cocurricular opportunities—experiences that lead not only to successful careers upon graduation but to a lifetime of further opportunities and success.

Since 1837, Mount Holyoke has been providing access to women from all socioeconomic backgrounds. We are here to assist you. Please contact Student Financial Services: 413-538-2291.
