Scholarships & Costs
As part of the application process for international students, applicants are required to verify that they have full financial support for their studies at Aquinas. The student, parent or sponsor must show, by bank statement, that they have sufficient resources available to pay for the annual expenses. Although you need only show sufficient financial support for at least the first year, it is assumed by the College and U.S. Customs and Immigration Service, that this support shall continue on an annual basis for the duration of study at Aquinas.
Though the financial aid award you receive may be more or less than average ($20,000 USD), families should be prepared to contribute at least $32,000 USD per year toward total expenses.
