Admissions & Financial Aid

During Admit Weekend, prospective freshmen explored campus life, discovered student organizations, and rang the gong to signal their interest in attending.

Stacey F. Bent, Vice Provost for Graduate Education and Postdoctoral Affairs and Elizabeth Zacharias, Vice President for Human Resources provide information on new financial aid programs to assist Postdocs.

Undergraduate families with annual incomes below $75,000 will not be expected to pay tuition, room or board at Stanford, up from the current $65,000 threshold. General tuition will not increase in 2021-22, while room and board charges will increase modestly.

Provost Persis Drell is allocating funds to enable all doctoral students in good academic standing to receive 12 months of funding for up to five years.

Philanthropic funding will cover both tuition and living expenses for students who qualify for aid, eliminating the need for medical school loans.
