Financing College in the U.S.

Guilford is dedicated to helping international students achieve their education goals. However, since Guilford cannot offer aid to cover all expenses, you should be prepared to pay a part, if not all, of your costs to attend. We strongly recommend you search for external sources of financial aid. The following are meant to help you in the search.

Academic Scholarships

Guilford offers merit aid to selected students as part of the overall financial aid package. The specific amounts are based on academic achievements, the strength of the student's curriculum, meaningful activities outside of the classroom, and information provided in the student's essay and letters of recommendation. There is a priority application deadline of Feb. 1 for students interested in scholarships.
