Skidmore College

Meeting 100% of demonstrated need

Skidmore College offers aid on the basis of calculated financial need. Put simply, we take the cost of attendance - family contribution = your financial aid offer. The result is a package that meets 100% of your demonstrated need. 

Applying for aid 

Fill out the CSS Profile. That's it! Simply complete the profile and submit it by the deadline associated with your application cycle. Later on in the process, you may also complete the FAFSA to be considered for state and federal aid, but all we need to get started is the CSS Profile. 

  • ED I: Submit by November 8 
  • ED II and RD: Submit by January 15

Cost of Attendance

Skidmore's comprehensive fee includes tuition, fees, housing, and board changes. Your financial aid package will also consider expenses for books, supplies, transportation, and more.
