Finances
Federal immigration regulations require all international students to provide documentation of financial support for their study in the United States. Students must be able to show that they have the funds to pay for tuition, fees, room and board, books and personal expenses (less any applicable scholarships) for the duration of their study in the U.S. Tuition and fees generally increase somewhat from year to year; the average increase has been about 3 percent in each category.
In some cases, undergraduate international students may qualify for partial academic scholarships. Students are reviewed for academic scholarships as part of the admissions process. The scholarships do not require a separate application form.
There are no full scholarships available.
As a private institution, Hood College charges the same tuition for domestic and international students.
