Scholarships/Financial Aid Available

The largest provider of available scholarships in New Hampshire is the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. It awards over six million dollars to over 1500 promising students annually. The 421 scholarship funds were created by the generosity of donors wanting to help New Hampshire's next generation reach their full potential.

They are committed to locating and providing funds for promising students that are in the greatest financial need. The scholarships are awarded for two- and four-year undergraduate degrees, professional certificate programs, licensure, and graduate school.

Many of the scholarships are renewable every year a student attends school. There are also financial aid resources available outside the Foundation that students can take advantage of for help in financing post-secondary education.

  • New Hampshire local scholarships

  • Tuition assistance
  • Earn while you learn
  • Job training
  • Repaying student loans

Teachers who complete a Teach for America program may be eligible for regional and federal grants and scholarships. Connect with the college of choice when seeking financial aid. Many schools offer financial aid packages and talent scholarships that require a particular application.

Requirements for In-State Tuition

It is hard to earn New Hampshire in-state tuition status. Some strict financial requirements typically require a year of full-time employment in New Hampshire and no school. The gap year can be taken before or after the freshman year.

There are few public universities in New Hampshire. Each has its interpretations, policies, and implementations of state laws. New Hampshire is an Academic Common Market member with a limited reciprocity agreement among the select Southern States members.

Although many restrictions apply, favorable college tuition rates are sometimes possible in nearby states. The degree a student wants to obtain cannot be offered in his or her home state, and the student remains a resident of the home state. Each institution and state can apply additional requirements, limits, or withdraw from participation in the program. There is a similar New England Board of Higher Education's Tuition Break program.
