We understand that college is an investment, and we're here to help you create a financial plan. More than 90% of Stevens students receive some form of financial support. Explore the many options available to make a Stevens education more affordable — starting with learning about the types of aid you may qualify for.
Stevens Scholarships and Aid
We strongly encourage all students and families to apply for financial aid, regardless of what you think you might receive. Below, we’ve provided information on the available types of aid. You might not be eligible for all of them, but it’s worth taking the time to learn about each one.
Stevens Scholarships
If your academic record, standardized test scores and extracurricular activities are particularly exceptional, you may be eligible for a Stevens merit scholarship when you are admitted. This gift aid is provided by Stevens Institute of Technology and does not need to be repaid.
Stevens Need-Based Aid
You may be eligible for a Stevens Grant if you demonstrate financial need and if funds are available. The Stevens Grant does not need to be repaid.
The Stevens Investment
Beginning Fall 2026, Stevens will cover full tuition for qualifying first-time, first-year, full-time undergraduate students.
