In this Resource Guide you'll learn...

What Does Meeting 100% of Financial Need Mean?

Why the Figures Can be Misleading

While nearly 2,800 four-year colleges and universities exist in the United States, there are only 75 institutions that claim to meet 100% of the demonstrated financial need of all or many of their students.

For families qualifying for financial need, getting accepted into a college that provides a child with an aid package that meets 100% of his or her financial need can be like winning the lottery.

Nearly all the colleges and universities on this list are private institutions. It’s rare for public universities to provide their students with all the financial aid that they need. The state universities that do, may not provide attractive aid to nonresidents.
