For many students, Simon’s Rock is a unique opportunity—much more than an “option.” It’s the “where have you been all my life” answer.

The opportunities at Simon’s Rock are unlike anything you’ll experience elsewhere. The quality of attention and focus on your individual abilities are ingrained into the entire Simon’s Rock experience. We are committed to working closely with you and your family to envision the almost limitless possibilities that await, and to discover how to put that vision within your reach.

The Simon’s Rock Advantage

Your research has likely turned up some variation on the phrase, “an education is an investment in your future.” Starting college two years earlier, and in the amazing environment we offer, is a huge advantage. At Simon’s Rock your investment brings returns sooner—intellectually, emotionally, socially, professionally, and financially. It’s an advantage that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

    The Financial Aid Application: Available December 1
    About 80 percent of Simon’s Rock students receive a financial aid package. You can start your financial aid application on December 1, that’s when the College Board PROFILE and FAFSA become available. The financial aid application can be submitted before or after you have submitted your application. We recommend that you complete your financial aid application at the same time as your admission application to ensure that you receive a potential financial aid offer in a timely manner. All applicants will be considered for any scholarships for which they are eligible; no additional application is required.
