  • Exeter Summer offers limited financial aid to domestic (U.S.) applicants.
  • Limited resources preclude offering financial aid to international applicants.
  • Financial aid awards are limited and competitive dependent upon the number of financial aid applicants in a given year.
  • Students who have received financial aid from Exeter Summer in the past are not eligible to receive financial aid again.
  • The deadline to submit an application with financial aid consideration is March 1.
  • Financial aid decisions are released by April 15.
  • Financial aid applicants who are waitlisted will be notified no later than May 15 should funding becomes available. At any time, waitlisted financial aid applicants can request to be considered without financial aid.
