State Grants & Scholarships

State Grants and Scholarships

A need-based grant or merit-based scholarship from the state of residence of full-time undergraduate students. Awards are estimated until the College receives notification from the state’s scholarship office.  States that permit the use of their state funding at Emmanuel are MA, CT, RI, VT, ME, and PA.

Consult the FAFSA or your state’s education department to determine the deadline for your state’s grant or scholarship programs.

For Massachusetts residents, there is a May 1st FAFSA filing deadline to be considered for a Massachusetts State Grant. Eligibility letters are sent to MA residents beginning in May. Questions regarding the MA State Grant can be directed to the Massachusetts Office of Student Financial Assistance at 617 727-9420.
