BW Visit Grant

A unique grant available for the incoming fall 2024 class.

A BW Visit Grant is one way that we welcome new students to campus and encourage all students and their families to see what campus has to offer. Visit grants are awarded to new first-year students who start in fall 2024 and visited campus by December 8, 2023. (Acting BFA students and Conservatory of Performing Arts students are not eligible for the BW Visit Grant.)

This grant is valued at $2,000 per year and is in addition to any merit scholarships or special awards a student may receive. Please note, total gift aid may not exceed the cost of tuition.

If you have already visited campus in preparation for starting in fall 2024, the BW Visit Grant will be added to your financial aid package.

Visit Campus — Again or for the First Time

While the deadline for eligibility for the Visit Grant has passed, Baldwin Wallace continues to welcome new students to campus.
