Financial Aid & Scholarships

Coming up with a plan to pay for college can feel overwhelming. We will make it easier with aid that includes grants and scholarships that recognize your academic accomplishments and other talents.

Scholarships

You have worked hard, earned great grades, demonstrated leadership and service, or excelled in the arts. Every year, we offer dozens of scholarships to recognize student achievement in these areas.

Grants

Students and their families who meet certain financial criteria may qualify for thousands of dollars in federal or state grants. These do not need to be repaid.

Loans

You or your parents may borrow money to help cover college costs, often at reduced interest rates and with longer repayment terms. About half of Hendrix students rely on loans to support their education, a rate below the national average.

Forms & Policies

Your eligibility for financial aid, whether merit- or need-based, starts by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Learn more about deadlines and other aid policies.
