Admission to Bard College is based on the applicant’s accomplishments
and promise, not on his or her ability to pay. The Admission Committee evaluates
applicants without regard to financial need.
To the extent possible, Bard seeks to assist qualified students who might not
be able to attend a prestigious private college because of the cost. In recent
years approximately two-thirds of all Bard students have received some form of
assistance from the College and/or federal, state, and private programs.
