Stevens Need-Based Aid
We know that sometimes, when all other sources of aid have been exhausted, a little extra support can make all the difference. That’s why we’re proud to offer The Stevens Grant every year as a form of special assistance to students with financial need.
Who receives the Stevens Grant?
If all possible sources of grants and scholarships have been applied to your financial aid package and you still demonstrate a high financial need, Stevens may decide to award you The Stevens Grant. This type of assistance is only available to full-time undergraduates, and if you are awarded the grant, your eligibility is reassessed each year based on your financial need and annual FAFSA submission.
How do I apply?
File the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For 23-24 you can file a FAFSA as early as October 1. The 24-25 FAFSA is expected to be available as early as December. The priority deadline for Early Action and ED I students is December 1. The priority deadline for ED II students is January 5, and April 15 for returning students.
Make sure to enter Stevens' school code on the FAFSA application. The school code is 002639.
Complete the CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE®, a single online form that allows you to apply for scholarships from over 300 colleges. The CSS PROFILE® is required in order to be reviewed for institutional need based aid. Remember, we will only receive your form if you add Stevens Institute of Technology as a college in your PROFILE® using CSS school code number 2819.
How does the Stevens Grant renew?
To renew The Stevens Grant, you must meet the Satisfactory Academic Progress standards each year. The amount of The Stevens Grant may change in any given year if your family’s financial circumstances change significantly when you file the FAFSA. If your FAFSA information does not change significantly and you meet the Satisfactory Academic Progress standards, you will usually see The Stevens Grant remain constant, provided you meet the FAFSA filing priority deadline of April 15.

Demonstrate significant financial need.
