A brief description of notable policies or programs to make the institution accessible and affordable to low-income students:

Endicott offers options to help finance students' education, such as a monthly payment plan through Tuition Management System (TMS), various loan programs, 58 different Endicott scholarships, and outside scholarships. The FAFSA does not need to be completed to receive these types of aid.

Endicott offers a number of scholarships and grants based upon a student’s academic achievement and financial need. Ninety-six percent of Endicott’s traditional undergraduate student body at Endicott received financial aid. The College awarded $68.6 million in financial aid to all students, of which $45.3 million was provided by Endicott College.

Beginning in 2019, the College began offering Inspire Scholarships to high-achieving, first-generation college students with significant financial need. These grants are offered in addition to the other aid typically offered and significantly reduce the cost of attendance.


A brief description of notable policies or programs to support non-traditional students:

Endicott supports non-traditional undergraduate students through our Van Loan School. This is a division of the College that supports learners raising families, caring for aging parents, full-time professionals, active military or veterans, immigrants, and first-generation students through flexible scheduling (evening and online) and competitive cost. A generous transfer credit policy is available, in addition to credit offered for prior learning/work experience. Additionally, special funding is available to single parents working through the program.
