International Student Scholarships

Manhattanville has a long history of rewarding students for high academic achievement regardless of their financial need. Each applicant is automatically evaluated for merit awards and no additional application is needed for consideration.

Annual renewal of all scholarships is based on:

1. Maintaining a minimum grade point average above 2.0
2. Attending each semester on a full-time basis (12 credits).

We offer those students with leadership, community service and/or social justice experience the opportunity to apply for the Sister Mary T. Clark, RSCJ Center Scholarship.

Financial Aid Appeal Process

Students who feel they are experiencing extreme financial hardships can submit an appeal to the financial aid office for additional institutional aid. To do so, students must submit a letter that explains their financial situation/hardship and why they feel that they should be awarded additional aid. In the appeal review process, we may request additional financial information. Appeal letters and any supporting documentation must be submitted to the financial aid office at finaidmail@mville.edu.
