WashU is “no-loan” for all
As part of our commitment to always put students first, WashU has expanded its “no-loan” financial aid policy to include all admitted undergraduate students. This means that need-based loans will be replaced with scholarships and university grants in all financial aid offers, ensuring that all admitted students can obtain a world-class WashU education without going in to debt. This policy is the latest step in a long, comprehensive strategy to expand access and financial aid at the university. Other components include the WashU Pledge and our need-blind admission policy.
