More than 90% of McDaniel College students receive some type of financial assistance — our financial aid staff is here to help make the process go smoothly for you. We invest over $30 million annually in grants and scholarships to ensure that students from all kinds of financial backgrounds are able to experience a McDaniel education.
The 2019-2020 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) season will begin on October 1, 2018. Families will need to report their 2017 income data.
