Welcome
Our goal is to make a Clark education affordable. The cost of higher education is an issue for everyone considering college. While the quality of a Clark education is truly outstanding, the cost can seem overwhelming initially. The Office of Financial Assistance works closely with families to explore a range of financial options to help make the Clark experience a reality for every talented student who believes Clark is the right fit for them.
Clark is committed to making its educational experience affordable for students admitted to the University.
- This year, Clark awarded approximately $36 million in financial assistance.
- Of the incoming first-year class, 83 percent received University scholarships
- More than 85 percent received some form of financial assistance.
Our Mission
The mission of the Office of Financial Assistance is to assist in funding students’ educational objectives while administering programs within federal, state, and institutional guidelines.
By counseling students and families about the programs offered and guiding them through the application process, it is our goal to make a Clark education affordable.
Also, it is our intention to provide our students and other constituencies with top quality customer service, practical and useful advice, and objective guidance in their financial aid decisions.
