You want to know the bottom line when it comes to paying for college. The bottom line is … You can afford Hendrix. Not only is Hendrix one of the nation’s best liberal arts colleges, but thanks to the financial aid and scholarships we offer, we’re also one of the most affordable.

Every Student Gets Help

Every Hendrix student receives some form of financial assistance — from need-based financial aid to scholarships for academic achievement, leadership and service experience, and fine arts performance. Along with financial aid and scholarships, there are grants, loans and other types of aid available to make Hendrix affordable for you.

Tuition Advantage

All students accepted for admission to Hendrix College will be considered for our Tuition Advantage scholarship program. If you are chosen, based on your academic record, leadership, extracurricular and volunteer activities, we will match the published in-state tuition at the flagship university in your home state. If you qualify for state or federal grants, or other outside scholarships, you can bring those to Hendrix as well. Learn more at www.hendrix.edu/tuitionadvantage.
