¾«¶«AV

We know affordability is a central question. That’s why ¾«¶«AV's Early Decision Aid Review lets you see an estimated aid package before committing to Early Decision.

In every admission round, ¾«¶«AV’s commitment is the same: we meet 100% of demonstrated financial need. And with the ¾«¶«AV Promise, families earning less than $100,000 receive free tuition or more. With ¾«¶«AV’s new Early Decision Aid Review, you and your family can receive an estimated need-based financial aid package by November 1—giving you clarity and confidence as you take this important step. 

How It Works

1. Submit a formal (EDAR) request.*
2. By October 15, submit your ¾«¶«AV application for fall 2027 through the Common Application or the Coalition Application.
3. By October 15, submit the required financial aid documents (CSS Profile and IDOC).
4. If all deadlines are met, your aid estimate will be sent by November 1.
5. If the estimate works for you, you can then switch your application to Early Decision or keep your Early Action or Regular Decision Application—knowing what support you can expect from ¾«¶«AV. 

*EDAR is currently available to U.S. citizens only.

Each year, about 95% of admitted ED students affirm their agreement and enroll at ¾«¶«AV, confident in both their choice and their aid.
