The Office of Financial Aid offers a personalized approach, helping our students and families by providing timely information, anticipating concerns, and seeking innovative, personalized solutions.
Did you know that over 95 percent of Lake Forest students applied for and receive some type of financial aid? And that the College awarded more than $20,000,000 in scholarships and grants to first-year students last year?
Rankings aren't everything, but we're pretty proud of where we stand as of Fall '24!
