Need-blind admission

Need-blind admission in the United States refers to a college admission policy that does not take into account an applicant's financial status when deciding whether to accept them. This approach typically results in a higher percentage of accepted students who require financial assistance and often necessitates that the institution has a substantial endowment or other funding sources to support the policy. Institutions which participated in an antitrust exemption granted by Congress were required by law to be need-blind, a requirement which remained in effect until September 30, 2022.[1] An institution may be need-blind in any given year by policy (de jure) or by circumstances (de facto).

Many colleges and universities cannot provide enough financial aid to cover the full demonstrated financial need of all admitted students. Some institutions are not need-blind, while others may practice need-blind admissions but cannot provide sufficient aid. Additionally, some schools that do not consider financial need for domestic first-year students may not extend the same policy to international or transfer students. Schools that are need-blind and meet full need for all applicants tend to be highly selective due to the large number of applications they receive.

Each institution has its own definition of meeting the full demonstrated need, and there is no universal standard. Some schools meet this need through grants and/or merit or talent scholarships alone, while others may also include loans and work-study programs. As a result, a student's financial aid package can differ greatly between schools that claim to meet full demonstrated need.[citation needed]

U.S. institutions that are need-blind and meet full demonstrated need for both U.S. and international students Edit

There are currently seven U.S. higher education institutions that are need-blind towards all applicants. These institutions meet full demonstrated need for all applicants, including international students.[2] These are:

U.S. institutions that are need-blind for U.S. applicants and meet full demonstrated need for certain or all students Edit

A number of U.S. institutions of higher learning both offer need-blind admissions, and meet the full demonstrated need for all students, but are need-aware when it comes to international student admissions. However, all admitted students will have their demonstrated need met, although in some colleges, primarily public colleges, such aid may only be offered for students who either require financial aid or are under specific geographical demographics. For instance, College of William & Mary and University of Michigan are public research universities that meet the full need of qualifying in-state students (residents of Virginia and Michigan, respectively) but don't meet the full need of out-of-state or international students. The following schools fall into this category:

U.S. institutions that are not need-blind for U.S. applicants and meet full demonstrated need for certain or all students Edit

Many reputable institutions that once championed need-blind policies have modified their policies due to rising costs as well as subpar endowment returns. Such institutions include prestigious colleges that do not offer merit-based aid but promise to meet 100% of financial need (mostly through grants). These stated institutions refer to themselves as "need-aware" or "need-sensitive," with policies that detract from their ability to admit and educate all qualified candidates but allow them to meet the full need of all admitted students who qualify for financial aid (many institutions extend this policy to all students).[69]

For instance, at Macalester College, Mount Holyoke College and Smith College, at least 95% of students are admitted without financial need being a factor, but a slim percentage, generally students who are waitlisted or who have borderline qualifications, are reviewed in consideration of the college's projected financial resources. All three colleges grant all admitted students financial aid packages meeting 100% of need.[70] At Wesleyan University, attempted shifts to a "need-aware" admission policy have resulted in protests by the school's student body.[71]

Some institutions only meet the full need for students who are domestic US residents and/or are eligible for US federal financial aid, as proven by the applicant's FAFSA and CSS profile. A few only meet the full need of students under specific demographics who are considered "economically disadvantaged" and may not be guaranteed to meet the full need of other students. Do note that some colleges don't state their financial aid admissions policy, so they're sorted into the need-aware category. The following schools fall into this category:

U.S. institutions that are need-blind for U.S. applicants and do not guarantee meeting full demonstrated need Edit

Some schools have a need-blind admissions policy but do not guarantee to meet the full demonstrated financial need of the students they admit. The following schools fall under this category:

U.S. institutions that are need-aware and do not guarantee meeting full demonstrated need Edit

The following institutions are need-aware and aren't guaranteed to meet the full need of the students they admit in any capacity:

Non-U.S. institutions that are need-blind for some or all applicants Edit

High schools Edit

As of 2020, Phillips Academy, St. Albans School, St. Andrew's School and Wayland Academy[116][117] are the only American boarding high schools that have clearly stated need-blind admission policies and meet the full demonstrated need of their admitted students. Phillips Exeter Academy was "effectively need-blind" prior to the 2009 admission season but stopped the practice because of economic pressures. Roxbury Latin School, a day school in the West Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, is also need-blind.[118]

are not need blind for U S applicants and meet full demonstrated need for certain or all students EditMany reputable institutions that once championed need blind policies have modified their policies due to rising costs as well as subpar endowment returns Such institutions include prestigious colleges that do not offer merit based aid but promise to meet 100 of financial need mostly through grants These stated institutions refer to themselves as need aware or need sensitive with policies that detract from their ability to admit and educate all qualified candidates but allow them to meet the full need of all admitted students who qualify for financial aid many institutions extend this policy to all students 69 For instance at Macalester College Mount Holyoke College and Smith College at least 95 of students are admitted without financial need being a factor but a slim percentage generally students who are waitlisted or who have borderline qualifications are reviewed in consideration of the college s projected financial resources All three colleges grant all admitted students financial aid packages meeting 100 of need 70 At Wesleyan University attempted shifts to a need aware admission policy have resulted in protests by the school s student body 71 Some institutions only meet the full need for students who are domestic US residents and or are eligible for US federal financial aid as proven by the applicant s FAFSA and CSS profile A few only meet the full need of students under specific demographics who are considered economically disadvantaged and may not be guaranteed to meet the full need of other students Do note that some colleges don t state their financial aid admissions policy so they re sorted into the need aware category The following schools fall into this category Alma College Detroit high school students only 72 American University may not meet full need for transfer students 73 Aquinas College 3 4 GPA and an SAT score of 1100 or ACT equivalent or higher required 74 Augustana College Illinois 75 Bard College only for historically economically disadvantaged in state first year students 76 Bates College Boston University may not

Program only 107 U S institutions that are need blind for U S applicants and do not guarantee meeting full demonstrated need EditSome schools have a need blind admissions policy but do not guarantee
