The Spelman Office of Financial Aid is here to assist students in financing their college education. Most of the funds administered by the Office of Financial Aid come from federal and state sources, in the form of grants, scholarships, work-study, and student loans. The eligibility of these types of financial aid is determined based on the formula approved by Congress and used by the Department of Education through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
At Spelman College, we value our students and are committed to making your education affordable. In addition to state and federal funds, the College invests from its own resources in support of financial aid programs to ensure that we attract students of high caliber who will enrich campus life with their academic and co-curricular achievements, and interests.
Last year, more than 90 percent of our students received some form of financial assistance to support their enrollment and success. Regardless of your family income, there are programs available to help finance the cost of your education. Learn more about the kinds of aid offered at Spelman College.
