A brief description of notable policies or programs to make the institution accessible and affordable to low-income students:
As part of our ongoing recruitment efforts, we bring groups of low income students from underrepresented backgrounds and low income first-generation students to campus for special programs. Many of these students are flown in from out-of-state. All costs associated with attending these programs are covered by the College, and students who attend and are admitted to the College do not have any unmet need in their financial aid awards.
