About

Why support Scholarships and Financial Aid?

Grinnell's commitment to making a Grinnell education accessible is steadfast! In the fall of 2021, Grinnell created the No Loan Program which eliminates student loans in financial aid packages and replaces them with scholarships for all new and continuing students eligible for need-based financial aid. Need-blind admission and the No Loan Program affirm our foundational principles, ensure access for every qualified student, and allow students from all walks of life to enrich our learning community. Your gift in support of scholarships and financial aid will support Grinnell's commitment to an accessible and affordable Grinnell education.
