Completed college applications are reviewed on a rolling basis throughout the year as long as space remains available. We encourage students to apply early, and applicants typically hear a decision within two weeks of completing their application.

 

The Financial Aid Application: Available October 1

About 80 percent of Simon’s Rock students receive a financial aid package. You can start your financial aid application on October 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.
