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.
