A Shared Partnership
At Emmanuel, we know that a college education is a worthwhile investment that can
reap great rewards. We also understand that financing a quality private education can
be a challenge. That is why we believe that paying for an education is a partnership
between students, their families and the College.
Students invest in their own education by applying for scholarships and grants and
by borrowing low-cost student loans.
Parents contribute to their children’s education from savings, current income, tax
credits and through low-cost parent loans.
Emmanuel College supports our students by offering merit-based scholarships and
need-based grant aid, and by participating in all federal and state funding options,
including the Federal TEACH Grant and Yellow Ribbon Program.
A college education provides graduates with dramatic advantages and opportunities.
Over the span of one’s working life, those with a bachelor’s degree earn nearly double
that of high school graduates, they gain access to a greater job market, and they open
doors to new fields through comprehensive and interdisciplinary learning.
Jenny Saint-Aubyn ’11Biology, Pre-Med Concentration
Research Student, Viral Pathogenesis Division, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
“Emmanuel’s proximity to the Longwood Medical and Academic Area (LMA) encouraged me to take the initiative and contact Beth Israel in hopes of gaining experience. I served as a research student and volunteered in their emergency department. I learned so much from both these experiences.”
Merit ScholarshipsEmmanuel awards merit-based scholarships to academically competitive applicants,
with amounts ranging from $5,000 to full tuition. Students who submit a completed
admission application by the February 15th application deadline are automatically
considered for these scholarships and receive notification with their acceptance letter.
Transfer students receive scholarship consideration if their admission application is
complete and submitted by April 1st.

Member of Dr. Michael Jarvinen’s student-research group in neuroscience

Possible sources include high schools, churches, local organizations, parent’s place of
employment or other clubs to which the family belongs. Most local libraries and high
school guidance offices have scholarship books or websites. For a list of scholarship

Jordan Coulombe ’12Secondary Education
Presidential Scholarship RecipientHonors Program Student
“I have had countless opportunities toget involved on campus, serving as a student government association president, a resident assistant, an athlete, and a writing fellow among other things. Being awarded a Presidential Scholarship was a deciding factor in my attending Emmanuel. It allowed me to take advantage of this exceptional experience.”
Need-Based Financial AidIn addition to merit-based scholarships, Emmanuel offers need-based grants and
federal and state grants, scholarships and student loan and employment programs.
Students interested in applying for need-based financial aid must complete the
2012-2013 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Emmanuel
College Application for Financial Aid. The FAFSA can be completed at
www.fafsa.gov on or after January 1, 2012 and the Emmanuel College Application
is available under the “Tuition & Aid” section of the Emmanuel website.
Although we encourage you to complete these applications as soon after January 1st
as possible, the priority filing date for Emmanuel College is February 15, 2012.
Emmanuel’s school code for the FAFSA is 002147. We also encourage you to use the
IRS Data Retrieval Tool when completing the FAFSA online. If you do not use this
tool, you may need to request tax transcripts from the IRS to document income.
Student Employment Students can gain valuable work experience and earn spending money through
on- or off-campus job opportunities. Emmanuel provides on-campus jobs, including
positions with academic departments, Athletics, Admissions, Residence Life and the
library. Our Boston location affords students the opportunity to find off-campus jobs
within a short walk from campus, as well as the chance to gain real-world experience
through internships.
Internship and job listings are conveniently posted on our Internships and Career
Development website and a job fair is held on campus at the start of each semester.
Tony Carter-Hill ’11Graphic Design
Student Employee, Emmanuel’s Office of Marketing Communications
“My hope was to gain more experience in graphic design while working in the Office of Marketing Communications. Yet it was the filming and editing projects that I enjoyed the most. Now I am planning to attend film school. I would not have realized my interest in this medium had it not been for this opportunity.”
Areas of Study
With more than 40 majors, minors and concentrations to explore at Emmanuel
College, students will flex muscles of both the mind and the heart as they develop
the ability to acquire and evaluate knowledge, and the imagination to shape new ways
of perceiving, thinking and creating. Here every class is taught by a professor, not a
teaching assistant. Creating a deep, personal student/faculty relationship that begins
day one. This is an engaged, energetic faculty with global connections in their fields.
The classes are small; the horizon is huge.
