Will my financial aid award be different if I am admitted through Early or Regular decision and not the Match?

No. Dartmouth provides full need-based financial aid to all admitted students and will meet every student’s demonstrated need regardless of when or how a student applies for admission. Dartmouth is only able to match with QuestBridge Finalists whose completed financial aid documents qualify them for a zero parental contribution according to Dartmouth’s financial aid policies. All admitted students with demonstrated financial need, however, qualify for a Dartmouth financial aid award that meets 100% of demonstrated need.

• If I rank Dartmouth in the National College Match, what else is required to complete my application for financial aid?

• If I am named a QuestBridge Finalist, may I apply to Dartmouth through the binding Early Decision process?

• If I rank Dartmouth but don't match with Dartmouth what happens next?
