Graduate Scholarships

Bowdoin continues to financially support students after graduation with graduate and medical scholarships.

Each year the Student Aid Committee offers more than $400,000 to Bowdoin seniors and alumni admitted or applying to programs of post-graduate study. The committee meets to review applications in mid-May, with final announcements at Commencement. Both financial need and superior academic and personal achievement are considerations in selecting recipients. The committee’s decisions vary somewhat from year-to-year depending upon the income that the funds earn and the number of candidates applying for aid. Electronic application will open 2 months prior to the due date.
