Prospective STUDENTS
To be considered for a Skidmore grant, prospective students are asked to complete the College Board's CSS Profile. Prospective students do not need to submit a FAFSA application to be considered for a Skidmore grant. The FAFSA is required only to apply for Federal aid and can be completed after you've been accepted and enroll in the college of your choice.
ESTIMATE YOUR AID
These calculators can help you you anticipate your college costs and estimate your eligibility for need-based scholarships. A Skidmore education might be more affordable than you think.
