Financial Aid for International Undergraduate Students at Dartmouth

Dartmouth College, United States

Scholarship overview

Dartmouth College meets the demonstrated need of all admitted undergraduates, including those from other countries. Need-blind admission was extended to all international citizens beginning with the Class of 2026, made possible by a $40 million anonymous gift. Dartmouth is described as the sixth U.S. college or university with universal need-blind admissions paired with a commitment to meet 100 percent of demonstrated need.

Scholarships and loans are available to international students, and aid includes an allowance for travel to the U.S.
