The Home State Promise

At Saint Michael’s College, we’re a community of students, faculty and staff who work together and truly care for each other. To that end, we’re dedicated to helping you finance your college education so you can call St. Mike’s home. Home means family and our students are at the heart of ours.

With our location in Vermont, we have a special opportunity for students who are residents of our beautiful Green Mountain State. Through our Home State Promise, joining the Purple Knight family is more affordable than ever.

With the Home State Promise:

  • New incoming students who are Vermont residents will be guaranteed Saint Michael’s scholarships and grants totaling a minimum of $30,000 per year.
  • You can supplement your costs further by applying for the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation’s Vermont Grant. Apply for the grant here.
  • Our Office of Student Financial Services is happy to work with you to gather the most up-to-date information and match you with all the aid for which you qualify.

*You must file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and you’ll be considered for the full range of federal and Saint Michael’s need-based aid to ensure that a Saint Michael’s education is affordable for you and your family.

*The Home State Promise applies to first year and transfer undergraduate students only.
