Elon Fellows Programs/Financial Aid

merkur · 10-24-2009, 08:57 AM

Elon is DD top choice, but the COA is daunting. The fellows programs offer substantial aid, and while I have seen the stats, I am interested to hear anyone's experience with those programs, both the chances for being accepted as a fellow and the experience overall.

On a similar note, advice and experience with Elon FA would be greatly appreciated.

Elon has a substantially lower COA than other private schools and as a result they offer less FA.

As Rex212 said.

Lower COA (and Elon remains very committed to being a "Best Value College")

Some fellows programs offer more FA than others, but the program is wonderful with or without the FA.

FA from the fellows program is in addition to any presidential scholarships.
