Emmanuel BostonIncluding Information on Scholarships and Financial Aid
2011-2012
Emmanuel College is committed to making a liberal

college education. We are here to help you find the
best plan for you. Together we can make an Emmanuel

A Shared ApproachAt Emmanuel, we know that a college education is a worthwhile investment that can
reap great rewards. We also understand that financing a quality private education can
be a challenge. That is why we believe that paying for an education is a partnership
between students, their families and the College.
Students invest in their own education by applying for scholarships and grants and
by borrowing with low-cost student loans.
Parents contribute to their children’s education from savings, current income, tax
credits and through low-cost parent loans.
Emmanuel College supports our students by offering merit-based scholarships and
need-based grant aid, and by participating in all federal and state funding options,
including the Federal TEACH Grant and Yellow Ribbon Program.
A college education provides graduates with dramatic advantages and opportunities.
Over the span of one’s working life, those with a bachelor’s degree earn nearly double
that of high school graduates, they gain access to a greater job market, and they open
doors to new fields through comprehensive and interdisciplinary learning.

Medical Center
“Emmanuel’s proximity to the Longwood
Medical and Academic Area (LMA) encouraged
me to take the initiative and contact Beth
Israel in hopes of gaining experience. Now, I
serve as a research student and volunteer in
their emergency department. I’m learning so
much from both these experiences.”

service in the community.

Need-Based Financial AidIf you apply for need-based financial aid by completing the Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FASFA), you are automatically considered for Emmanuel
College grant aid. Some students will also be eligible to receive federal, state and
other grant or scholarship funding. These funds may be awarded in addition to
merit or other scholarship funds you receive from Emmanuel College. Students who
complete a FAFSA may also receive low-interest student loans, including the Federal
Stafford Loan and Federal Work Study.
Students interested in applying for need-based financial aid must complete the
2011-2012 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application
can be completed online at www.fafsa.gov on or after January 1, 2011. Although
we encourage you to complete the FAFSA as soon after January 1st as possible, the
priority filing date for Emmanuel College is March 1, 2011. Emmanuel’s school
code for the FAFSA is 002147.
In addition, all students must complete an Emmanuel College Application for
Financial Aid and submit signed copies of parent and student 2010 federal income
tax returns. The application is available on our website at www.emmanuel.edu
(click on “Tuition & Aid”).
Student Employment Students can gain valuable work experience and earn spending money through
on- or off-campus job opportunities. Emmanuel provides on-campus jobs, including
positions with academic departments, Athletics, Admissions, Residence Life and the
library. Our Boston location affords students the opportunity to find off-campus jobs
within a short walk from campus, as well as the chance to gain real-world experience
through internships.
Internship and job listings are conveniently posted on our Internships and Career
Development website and a job fair is held on campus at the start of each semester.

Marketing Communications
“My hope was to gain more experience in
of Marketing Communications. Yet it was the
after graduation. I would not have realized my
interest in this medium had it not been for
this opportunity.”
Areas of StudyWith more than 30 areas of study to explore, at Emmanuel College you will flex
muscles of both the mind and the heart as you develop the ability to acquire and
evaluate knowledge, and the imagination to shape new ways of perceiving, thinking
and creating. Here every class is taught by a professor, not a teaching assistant.
Creating a deep, personal student/faculty relationship that begins day one. This is
an engaged, energetic faculty with global connections in their fields. The classes
are small; the horizon is huge.
