The total out-of-pocket cost to attend Ripon College varies for each student based on individual academic and
performance-based achievement and demonstrated financial need. Financial aid can come from federal, state,
institutional and private sources. It can be in the form of gift aid (scholarships and grants) or self-help (student
employment and low-interest loans). We determine each student’s financial aid individually, and you may receive a
combination of types of aid depending upon your eligibility. To determine your aid package, we use information you
supply on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This form is available online beginning Oct. 1, 2016,
at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Be sure to include the Ripon College federal school code (003884).
When filing the FAFSA, you must use your full legal name and Social Security number as each appears on your
Social Security card. It must be on file with Ripon College for your aid to be disbursed.
