HMC reserves the right to evaluate an application and render a final decision even if all pieces of the application have not been received.

International Students and Financial Aid

ÎÞÓÇÊÓƵ offers financial aid to a small number of admitted international applicants. Because funding for international students is limited, your level of financial need may affect your chances for admission if you apply for financial aid. International students are not eligible for federal financial support. Please be advised:

• Competition for funding is high. We are able to meet 100% of a family’s demonstrated need for only a handful of international students.
• If you enter ÎÞÓÇÊÓƵ as an international student who does not need financial aid, you won’t be eligible to apply for aid in subsequent years.
• Harvey Mudd does not offer funding for international transfer students. An international transfer student may only apply to ÎÞÓÇÊÓƵ if he or she is not applying for financial aid.
