  • Scholarships and Financial Aid:
    Need-based financial aid is awarded to students who demonstrate that their family's financial resources are not sufficient to meet the full annual cost of attending Kenyon. Aid awards usually consist of "packages," which include institutional grants, scholarships, loans, and campus employment. In some cases, students are also eligible for federal or state grants, and these are included in the total package.
  • Tuition and Fees:
    Estimated Cost: $91,010. With academic merit scholarships and need-based financial aid, Kenyon is more affordable than you might think. After the award of scholarships and grants, the average net price is $47,474 - and could be less.
