Stanford University offers a wide range of scholarships and financial aid packages to support undergraduate and graduate students who are enrolled in degree programs at the university. These scholarships are designed to help cover the cost of tuition, fees, room, board, and other educational expenses.
Stanford’s financial aid program is based on demonstrated financial need, which is determined by a comprehensive evaluation of the student’s family income, assets, and other financial resources. Stanford’s need-based aid packages typically include a combination of grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study opportunities.
In addition to need-based aid, Stanford also offers merit-based scholarships for students who demonstrate exceptional academic, leadership, artistic, or athletic achievements. Some of the merit-based scholarships include the Stanford Founders’ Scholarship, the Dinkelspiel Scholarship, the Kennedy Scholarship, and the Stanford Achievement Award.
