Financial Assistance for International Students

Assistance Based on Achievement, Potential, and Need

Washington University provides financial assistance for freshman and
transfer international students. Financial assistance for qualified
students is considered on a case-by-case basis. Although we do our
best to provide competitive financial assistance packages, funding
limitations prevent the University from providing financial support
for all applicants who deserve it, nor is it always possible to meet
every recipient's requirements. Financial assistance is renewable
for each year of undergraduate study, as long as the student is
making normal progress toward the degree and maintaining a good
academic record. Finally, United States Immigration and
Naturalization Service regulations severely restrict the employment
of international students. Student should not, therefore, count on
funds from any possible employment to defray the costs of tuition
and living expenses.

International students may submit either the CSS-PROFILE or the
Washington University International Financial Aid Application. The
Financial Aid Application is sent to all applicants for admission.
Or, click here to complete the International Financial Aid
Application online. The CSS-PROFILE is available on the Internet
from the College Board at www.collegeboard. com.

Academic Scholarships and Fellowships for Freshmen
Washington University recognizes outstanding achievement by awarding
freshman scholarships and fellowships in a variety of competitions
and programs, many of which have no restrictions on citizenship.
These extremely competitive awards are based solely on merit,
regardless of family circumstances.
Freshman applicants must complete both the application for admission
and the scholarship application by January 15 to be considered. Only
students who have not completed any university-level education are
eligible to apply for these academic awards.

All applicants will receive further information regarding financial
assistance. You will also want to consult an advising center in your
country operated directly by, or in close cooperation with, the
United States Information Service. These centers have books and
files on sources of financial assistance for studying in the United
States. Ask the United States Embassy or Consulate for the location
of the nearest advising center.
