A need-blind admission policy means that you will not be denied admission to an institution simply because your family may not have sufficient financial resources to meet the full cost of attendance. You have the choice as to which part you would like reduced. Outside scholarships do not affect any merit-based scholarships that you receive from Lawrence. Lawrence has many different types of options for work-study, and anyone who wants a campus job will be able to find one. Like all schools, some of the jobs are clerical or in food services, but Lawrence also offers many opportunities for jobs within academic departments and administrative offices.
Many students serve as laboratory or research assistants, tutors, or resource center coordinators.
I want to apply Early Decision to Lawrence, but I'm concerned about the cost of attending. You and your family will complete the Lawrence Early Estimator Form , allowing us to do a tentative need analysis and make an aid award to you at the time of your admission. If the information you provided on the Early Estimator is accurate, your financial aid award will be the same as the tentative award. There is no reason to pay someone else to do that for you. Information about scholarships is readily available in your high school guidance office, at the library, and on the Internet .
