Financial Aid

Information for New Students

Financial aid and scholarships are available to all who apply and qualify but some funds are distributed on a first-come first-serve basis. Therefore, you should complete the FAFSA as soon as possible after submitting your application for admission. File the FAFSA online as early as possible beginning January 1, 2012 and before March 1, 2012. Financial Aid packages will continue to be awarded to qualifying students throughout the spring and early summer.

Cornish College of the Arts practices rolling admission which means that as long as there is space available in your major, applications are accepted until August 15 for fall semester, and December 15 for spring semester. Please contact Admission if you have questions about the timing and process for admission and/or financial aid applications. All incoming freshmen and transfer applicants must be admitted to the College in order to receive an offer of financial aid.

More information for new and current students is available at Financial Aid.
