Admission & Financial Aid
Impact from this Hurricane Season
Our hearts go out to all impacted by this hurricane season. We understand these storms will have an impact on our student's and high school partner's ability to submit documents. The Admission and Financial Aid Office stands ready to work with you throughout the application process and understands that in the coming weeks travel will be difficult, access to information will be limited and planned events may be cancelled. Please know that we are here to help.
If you live in an area affected by Hurricane Helene or Hurricane Milton, you may qualify for an application fee waiver. Please email us at admission@davidson.edu or call 800-768-0380 to learn more.

Small classes enable our renowned faculty to collaborate with students, engaging them directly in original research and creative work across the arts, sciences, social sciences and humanities. In the classroom and beyond, Davidson cultivates students' compassion, creativity, resilience and moral courage.

We proudly stand as one of only two dozen schools in the United States that admit students independent of their family’s ability to pay, meet 100 percent of calculated need, and do so without loans in their aid package.
The move, made in Spring 2022, turns what had been a pandemic-era pilot program into permanent policy. Students have the option to include their scores from the SAT or ACT, if desired.
We're here to help you navigate the admission process, and answer your questions about life at Davidson.
For general inquiries about admission and financial aid, call 800-768-0380 weekdays between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. or contact us at admission@davidson.edu.
