Bryn Mawr College awards need-based financial aid on a competitive basis to international applicants who do not hold a U.S. passport, or are not permanent residents of the US. Financial aid at Bryn Mawr includes grants, loans and employment.
Eligibility is determined through a review of family financial information. The College uses formulas and guidelines developed and widely used by most of the country's leading colleges. A family’s ability to absorb college expenses over time is calculated. Once the review is complete, a family "expected family contribution" is established.
